I Spy Printables: Find, Count and Colour
- Ages 3–8
- Ready to print
- Many play on screen
I spy pages are busy pictures full of things to find: animals on a farm, toys in a bedroom, fish in the sea, fruit at a market. Children look for each object, count how many there are and write or circle the number. It is counting practice, vocabulary and careful looking all in one, and younger children can join in long before they can read.

More about this collection
Play the spoken version too. “I spy with my little eye something beginning with b…” turns the page into a phonics game, and older children can take turns being the one who chooses.
Each picture has a theme, such as farm, sea, toys, clothes or music, so you can pick one that fits what your child is learning or loves right now. Line versions double as colouring pages once all the objects are found. For early readers, the word list next to the picture is a gentle reading exercise: read the word, find the object, count it.
How to use these
- Name each object together before counting.
- Tick or colour each item as you find it, so nothing is counted twice.
- Play the spoken “I spy” game with the same picture.
