We played a color game today, we gave each of the children a color bear and they had to find something in the room that matched the bears colors.

We did a watercolor picture today making rainbow colors

We had colored shapes at the easels.

We had out Mr. Potato head, some color mice for matching the right cheese to the mouse. and a shape puzzle book.

We sang Jump Jim Joe, Dog in School, and Put your finger on.
