Using different tools to do art projects is something we love to do in our classroom! Our little learners got to jingle and shake a box to paint their Christmas tree our color of the month—green! We also sang “Jingle Bells” while we were shaking 🙂

This December, we have been working on some holiday art projects! For one project, we used marbles and green paint to make our white Christmas trees, green! We also used star cookie cutters to make star prints with glitter, since the star is our shape of the month. We can’t forget about our alphabet page, which was the letter “K” last week. We made “K is for Kite” letter pages!

Color recognition is a skill that uses the cognitive function, which is what our brains use to think, reason, and remember. Through cognitive reasoning, children link visual clues, such as colors, to the word it corresponds to, which is recalled from the use of their cognitive function.
The toddlers have been learning all about the color green this month! We incorporated the color green into lots of activities this week, for them to have the continual to exposure to one color, in which they can link to the word, “green”. They went on a hunt for the color green, used green markers, crayons, chalk, and paint, to create different artwork, and used green circles and triangles to sort shapes! Our friends sure made green week fun!
