COLOR OF THE WEEK -- javascript:void(0);RED



I just started something new with my 2 year old daughter - color of the week!
This week was about the color: RED

Here are some of the fun activities we did.................

With red shredded paper (which I received in packaging for a product review) I made her a seek and find sensory box hiding all sorts of red objects in the box and she had to find them all.


With tongs, picking up red objects and putting them in the ice cube trays
Apple craft
Apple stamping craft using real apples cut in 1/2 and dipped in paint.


Check back next week for our Brown Bear, Brown Bear What do you see crafts and activities.
