Free Addition Worksheets for Kindergarten

These free addition worksheets for kindergarten help children aged 4 to 7 learn to add, step by step. The activities move from counting pictures to writing simple sums, so each worksheet builds on the one before. Every printable is 100% free, with no sign-up and no payment.

The collection covers five easy formats:

• Picture addition: count the objects on each side and write the total.
• Count the fruits and add: count fruit pictures, write both numbers, then find the sum.
• Count and write addition: count groups of circles or objects, write the numbers and add them.
• Simple addition sums: fill in the answer to sums like 2 + 1 = and 4 + 3 =.
• Sums to 10: practice with every addition fact that makes 10 or less.

If counting to 10 still feels new, start with our number worksheets. For a mix of early maths skills, see our free math worksheets for kindergarten.

Use the sheets at home after school, as a quick maths warm-up in class, or for holiday revision. A few minutes most days works better than one long session, and adding real things like spoons, buttons or rotis makes each sum easy to picture.

These free addition worksheets for kindergarten help your child:

• Understand adding: putting two groups together to find the total.
• Use the + and = signs: reading and writing simple sums.
• Know sums to 10: the addition facts children use again and again.
• Count on: starting from the bigger number and counting up, which is faster than counting everything.
• Build confidence: moving from pictures to written sums at their own pace.

These skills support the early maths taught in LKG, UKG and Grade 1, and they prepare children for taking away and bigger numbers later.

• LKG (about 4 to 5 years): picture addition with small numbers.
• UKG (about 5 to 6 years): count and add, and simple written sums.
• Grade 1 (about 6 to 7 years): every sum to 10 and quick revision.
• Teachers and homeschooling parents: ready-to-print maths practice for home or class.

Every child learns at their own pace, so use these free addition worksheets for kindergarten as gentle practice, not a test. If written sums feel hard, go back to picture addition for a few days.
