Kindergarten Addition Worksheets — Free Printable PDF
Free kindergarten addition worksheets — add to 5, add to 10 with pictures and number bonds. Common Core K.OA aligned. Instant PDF download.
Kindergarten addition isn't really about getting answers — it's about building the mental picture. When a child sees three apples plus two apples and counts five, they're learning that 'plus' means combine, that the order doesn't matter, and that the result is bigger than either group. Those three insights are the whole foundation of arithmetic.
Our kindergarten addition sheets keep things visual. Early pages show pictures of objects with a plus sign between them — count both groups, write the total. Mid-range sheets introduce the equation format (3 + 2 = ?) with pictures still attached as scaffolding. Advanced sheets cover sums to 10 in pure numeric form, plus simple number bonds.
Use these alongside our Addition Adventure and Math Quiz games for the classic mix of paper and screen practice. Free to print, free for classroom use, no signup wall.

Are answer keys included?+
Every sheet has an answer key at the bottom of the page for easy parent and teacher checking.
What's a good order to use these in?+
Start with picture-only sheets, then picture-with-equation, then pure numeric. Don't rush — let the child master each level.
