Let’s go through each picture one by one and decide whether the animal or object is
in,
on, or
under something.
---
Picture 1: A dog is sitting inside a car.
→ The dog is
in the car.
Picture 2: A cat is lying on top of a bed.
→ The cat is
on the bed.
Picture 3: A cat is hiding below a chair.
→ The cat is
under the chair.
Picture 4: A dog is standing inside a closet (between the doors).
→ The dog is
in the closet.
Picture 5: A squirrel is climbing up the side of a tree, not under or in it — but since it’s touching the trunk and going upward, we usually say it’s
on the tree.
Wait — actually, looking again: the squirrel is at the base of the tree, maybe near the roots? But typically, if an animal is against the trunk or climbing, we say “on”. Let’s stick with
on.
But hold on — some might argue “under” if it’s beneath the branches. However, the drawing shows the squirrel next to the trunk, not underneath the canopy. So better to say
on.
Actually, let me double-check common usage: If you’re leaning against a tree, you’re “on” it? Not really. Hmm.
Better thinking: In preposition worksheets like this, if the animal is beside or touching the tree trunk, they often use “by” — but that’s not an option here. Since “in”, “on”, “under” are the only choices…
Looking at Picture 5 again: The squirrel is at the bottom of the tree, possibly under the lowest branches? Maybe it’s meant to be
under the tree? That makes more sense for worksheet logic.
Yes — many similar worksheets show animals under trees when they’re at the base. So I’ll go with
under.
Picture 6: A dog is sitting on a sofa.
→ Clearly
on the sofa.
Picture 7: A cat is sitting under an umbrella.
→ The umbrella is above the cat → so the cat is
under the umbrella.
Picture 8: A lion is inside a box.
→ The lion is
in the box.
Picture 9: A squirrel is on a picnic table.
→ Sitting on top →
on the table.
Picture 10: Two cats are inside a drawer or chest.
→ They are
in the drawer/chest.

Now let’s list them all clearly:
1. in
2. on
3. under
4. in
5. under *(revised based on typical worksheet intent)*
6. on
7. under
8. in
9. on
10. in
Final Answer:
1. in
2. on
3. under
4. in
5. under
6. on
7. under
8. in
9. on
10. in
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of in on under worksheet.
