Spring Color Basket
[15 Minutes]
Baskets are often associated with spring. Use one to play a "search and find" game with your child!
You'll need:
basket ribbons (yellow, pink, lavender, green, white)
What to do:
- This game can be played over a period of several days.
- On the first day, tie a yellow ribbon in a bow on the basket handle. Invite your child to carry the basket and search for objects that match the color.
- She will enjoy putting things into the basket and carrying them around.
- When finished, pull out each item and name it together.
- Continue playing this game each day using a different colored ribbon.
- Enjoy this finger play together about spring baskets.
I made a little basket (form a circle with your hands) And left it at your door. (point to friend) It means I hope you have a happy day And many, many, more! (open and close your hands)
Let's Talk: Ideas to Explore Together.
