Colour By Number

If we had lots of time and more wall space, we could create Colour By Number Portraits!  http://www.wallpaintbynumber.com/Home.aspx
But that wasn't happening, so instead I took our tessellation stencils http://mamadrool.blogspot.ca/search?q=tessellation and produced a simple colour-by-number activity.

Since O is keen on learning to spell, I wrote the name of the colours to correspond.
