Toddler and Pre-School Theme Days

Go to the library to find some colour books or books with Red in the title like “Little Red Riding Hood.”

BOOKS:

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

The Colour Red

CRAYON AND PAPER:

Write the word "red" 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.

Try some of these titles if you can find them:

· Red Red Red, by Valeri Gorbachev,  Philomel Books, 2007 – A cute book about animals who follow a turtle to find out what he is going to see that is “red, red, red.”

· Red is a Dragon: A Book of Colours, written by Roseanne thong and illustrated by Grace Lin, Chronicle Books, 2001 – A brightly coloured book in rhyme about a Chinese girl who sees all the different colours in everything around her.

· Red is Best, story by Kathy Stinson and art by Robin Baird Lewis, Annick Pres Ltd., 1982 – An endearing book about a stubborn toddler who is partial to only red clothing.
