Apple Color Match

Apple color match for preschool and kindergarten
I made an apple color match to work on color recognition skills.  There are twelve different color apples along with the matching color circles. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out and laminated them.

I put a self-adhesive magnet on the back of each of the color circles as I do with most of my matching and cover-up activities.  The magnet helps to raise the circles off the surface making them easier to pick up and they also help hold the apples in place.

In this activity children pick a color circle and put it on the apple with the same color.  Play continues until all of the colors have been matched.  You can grab the apple color match patterns here.

All about me book.
At the beginning of each school year we make all about me books so the children can get to know a little bit about themselves and there classmates.  I print the pages out on regular paper and the children work on one page each day until the book is complete.

We glue the completed pages on colored cardstock paper and laminated them.  I also bind them using a binding machine that I purchased several years ago specifically for the purpose of making books and games.

You can make the book anyway you want ... use only some of the pages or use them all.  You can also put the books together just by placing the completed pages between to sheets of construction paper or cardstock paper.

Button Color Sorting

Button color sorting for preschool and kindergarten
We did a color sorting activity that the children really enjoyed.  I purchased buttons from the crafts store and walmart which came in six different color and in a variety of sizes.

The button colors matched the color sorting bowls that I purchased from amazon.com.  I set the buttons out along with the empty sorting bowls and the children sorted the buttons into the correct bowls.

After the buttons had all been sorted the children estimated which color had the most buttons and the least buttons.  We then counted the buttons.  This activity was super easy to set up and not only did it work on colors and sorting but also fine motor skills.  Because buttons are small objects please use supervision for children 3 and under and those still in the stages of putting items in their mouths.
