Nest and nut both begin with N, and this letter N coloring page shows both under a big capital N and a lowercase n. The nest is made of short twigs and holds three eggs, and it has a smiling face on its front. Below it sit a whole walnut and a walnut half that shows the bumpy nut inside. It suits ages 4 to 6, because the twigs of the nest make many small spaces.

How this coloring page was created

For this page, we typed this idea into Colorin AI: "the capital letter N and the lowercase letter n side by side, drawn large as hollow outlined letters ready to color across the top half of the page, with a bird nest with eggs and a walnut below them". In the drawing, the nest has big eyes and an open smile, and a leaf grows on each side of it.

How to use it

A preschool teacher can point to the nest and the nut while saying each word, then ask the class to find the capital N and the small n. For sound practice, call the walnut a nut, since the word walnut starts with W. A speech therapist can then use nest and nut as two words that begin with the N sound. If a child's name starts with N, make a page with that name and an N to color next.
