This week: mixing colors

A mixing week for twos to fours: red and yellow make orange, blue and yellow make green, and guessing before we mix.

Our letter is C: C is for color.

Our song is “Little Boy Blue”. The words are below, so you can sing it at home.

Little Boy Blue

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn, The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn; Where is the boy who looks after the sheep? He's under the haystack, fast asleep.
