What You Need:

• Optional: this printable

• Crayons: blue, yellow, orange, green, purple

• You can also choose different color crayons to match the objects in your home. 

• Five objects that match each color in/around the home

Pro-tip for Fine Motor Skills:

For this age, choose broad, easy-grip crayons or dot markers. You can extend the play by using a sponge and finger paint to color your square, and then let it dry before going on your hunt!

Remember, it’s ok to color outside of the lines!

How to Play:

• Print out this page, or draw a square box in the center of a piece of paper. Use one color to color in the square.

• Give your child the paper and ask them to find five things around the house that are the same color.

• For little ones who aren't counting yet,  you can place each item in a bucket or box and have them look for the buckets to find the toys inside.

• Have your child find objects that are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple for a rainbow hunt!
