Learning Colors with Educational Toys for Preschoolers

When I was a preschool teacher long ago I would help the little ones learn colors by having a celebration day. For instance one day we would celebrate the color red and everything in the playschool would be that color. There would be red play dough, different shades of red at the paint easel, red counting toys and red water in the water table. Snack would be juicy red watermelon. We would have red stories and songs, and we would play “I spy with my little eye something that is (you guessed it!) Red”!!! The children and I would be wearing red. You get the idea… One day I was dressed head to toe in yellow. A father was dropping off his child and I asked him if he knew what we were celebrating today; he looked me up and down and seriously said, “Banana Day?” I think I enjoyed the planning and the hoopla more than the children and I don’t know if this extravaganza really had any major impact on learning colors.
