I made a heart color sorting activity to round out our valentine's theme. I used craft foam that I purchased from walmart instead of cardstock paper because I liked the thickness of it and the durability. I cut the foam into heart shapes and hot glued them onto craft sticks.
I then cut small circles out of the craft foam and glued them onto clear plastic cups. I used ten different colors of foam for this activity but depending on how young the children are that you work with you may want to use less.
I set the cups and heart sticks out in a center and the children put the heart sticks in the cup with the same colored circle on the front. Not only was this a great activity for color recognition but also for fine motor as well as eye-hand coordination.
