Toddler and Pre-School Theme Days

WRITING

BOOKS:

Search through your child’s books to find any that teach the colours and flip to the blue pages.

CRAYON AND PAPER:

Write the word "BLUE" on a piece of paper using light pencil and then give your child a red crayon (or marker) so he/she can trace it and then try to write it on his/her own.
