Alef bet coloring pages that teach the letters, free sampler included

I've never written a word about the alef bet coloring pages in my Hebrew packs, so this is that post. Three of my packs include color-by-number pages built around the alef bet, and one of them is free.

Why coloring, when the goal is letters? Because coloring keeps a kid on the page. A lot of alef bet coloring pages are a big outline of a letter and nothing else, which is fine, but a color-by-number gives a kid a reason to keep looking. Matching a number to a color is easy for small hands, so the eyes get to do the real work. And that looking is most of letter recognition.

Start with the free Hebrew Alef-Bet Activity Sampler for ages 4-6. It has 4 activities across 9 pages, with 3 tracing pages plus 1 color-by-number. It costs nothing, so you can test your printer and your kid's interest before spending a dollar.

If it lands, there are two full packs at $4.50 each, 30 pages apiece:

Now the practical part, since these are the questions I get. Everything is US Letter, made to print at home. The pages are low ink on purpose. No prep, you print and hand them over. Answer keys are included for the word searches, and each key gets checked by an auto-solver before a pack goes up.

I'm a software engineer and a dad. I build these with software I wrote myself and check every page by hand. That's the whole operation.

On fit: the 4-6 pack suits kids meeting the letters for the first time. The 6-8 version is for kids who can name most of the alef bet but still trip on the look-alikes. If your kid is past letters and into words, my Hebrew animals packs for ages 6-8 and ages 8-10 pick up from there, each with 3 color-by-number pages of their own. Those and the rest of my 12 packs live at the store.

Grab the sampler and see what your kid does with the color-by-number page.
