I made a paint brush color match and clip activity as we are still working on developing color recognition skills. I printed out the paint brushes and paint cans on cardstock paper ... cut them out and laminated them. I set the brushes and cards out in a basket along with clothespins for the children to use.
I made the paint brushes and cans in twelve different colors and separated them in the basket. Children find the paint brush and paint can with the same color and clip them together with a clothespin. We really like working with clothespins because they are great for fine motor skills.
You can can also do the color match without using clothespins by laying the paint cans on a table or floor and having the children put the matching paint brush on top of the can.
