Colors, Colors, Oh My!!!

Sorting colors is great activity to do with your little preschooler.  Not only does it reinforce their color knowledge and memory, but they also learn how to group according to what is "alike." I purchased a couple of muffin pans from the Dollar Store, and cut out circles from colored construction paper and placed it where the muffins would go.  I also bought colored craft buttons from a craft store, you can purchase them from most stores that carry craft supplies.  I ended up buying ones that are shapes, and we were also able to sort the buttons by squares, circles,triangles, etc.

To enhance their fine motor skills you can also use plastic tweezers to grab onto the buttons and place them in the muffin pan.
