I just had to find another way to use my fun clip art from Pink Pueblo! So I created a set of 12 which one is different worksheets for preschool and kindergarten. The best part is that they are in four levels of difficulty. By giving them different pages of the pack, I was able to challenge my Two, Four, and Six.
Level One: On the first three pages, each line contains identical images with one image that is completely different.
Level Two: The images are the same, but one has been altered slightly. It could be upside down, facing a different direction, or a different size than the other pictures.
My two-year-old (almost three) loved doing levels 1 and 2. I gave him an “x” stamp to stamp out the picture that did not belong in each row. Another idea is to use Do a Dot markers. You can also laminate the pages and use small magnets to cover the picture that doesn’t fit. That will give you lots of use out of these pages, especially if you are using them at a learning center in a classroom.
Level Three: These are more challenging. Your child will need to think about what kind of thing each item represents. Are they all food, except for one? Are they all animals, except for one? Or, in the above example, are they all things that can take you places, except for one?
My four-year-old enjoyed levels 2, 3, and some of level 4, before he’d had enough sitting.
Level Four: This one requires a lot more thinking. At first glance, it might look like the pictures belong together. In the above example, the cow gets crossed out because it is the only farm animal.
Level 4 was a good challenge for my six-year-old, who is just finishing kindergarten.

You can print in black and white – the colors are pretty, but not important :).

We finally managed to try these out today – they have been on my list for a few days now and my girl was so excited. She is 4,5 yrs old and did well without help until level 3 – level 4 was a bit tricky. She fits into any gender stereotype: Her weakest part were the vehicles *lol*. She loved them and you know what? She decided not to cross the odd one out, but to mark it with a tiny dot below, “because XYZ is so cute” or “I like it too much”… Later she ended up cutting out the items – I had printed two pages on one and they were really tiny then, but she loved it and cut out 15 items in a row before getting tired. It was great fun, thank you so much!
Oh and I pushed my husband to finally set up my own website so that finally I can share my ideas with you too 😉
I’m so glad your daughter had so much fun with these, Conny – thanks for sharing! How exciting that you’re getting your own website — let me know the details when it’s up and running!!

Great ideas! I teach Title I reading to kindergarten, second and third graders. I can’t wait to use these fabulous ideas with my kindergarten! I plan to laminate them and let the kids use wet erase markers! Thanks for all the great stuff!
I let the idea of laminating and using marks, Karlene! Great to make all that colored ink last 🙂 We like to cover with magnets too. It makes me so happy when teachers find my site!
Great work .. Do you have more !!

Wow this printable is just what im looking for. Link is not working though sadly
I would really like there. The link is not working.
HI Janice! The link works just fine for me, so the file is still there. Here are some things to try:
1) Switch browsers. Internet Explorer doesn’t work with my site. Google Chrome works the best.
2) If you’re using Google Chrome and still having trouble, try this trick: RIGHT click on the brown download link. Then choose “save link as.” Save the file to your computer. Then open from there to print.
Anne ..it is really amazing …thank you a lot for your help …good luck honey
You’re very welcome, Huda!
These are amazing! Thank you so much for these printables. 😀 I’m pregnant with my third and have two toddlers, and my 3 year old is going to absolutely love these. I’m putting them in plastic sheets so she can use a dry-erase marker over them. Thanks again!
You’re welcome, Genevieve!
