Today’s Inside Activity and great idea was contributed by Tabitha Frost
You will need
Two sheets of paper
6 colours of Crayons or paint and brushes
Camera or phone
On the first sheet of paper
Make 6 different coloured squares on the page, write the numbers beside the six colours, you could also write the words for the colours and numbers.
On the second sheet of paper
Draw a large oval
Can you find items in the house to match the colours and numbers? Place them next to the colour they match.
You could draw or take photos of the things you find.
Where will you find things, are they all toys, are some from the bathroom or kitchen? What are they made of?
