For our next Learning About Colors Themed Day, I chose to do the Color Brown since it ties in perfectly with Thanksgiving & Fall.
BROWN CRAFTS
My son made a Brown Collage using buttons, scrap pieces of fabric, thread, construction paper, & ribbon.
He colored an Itsy Bitsy Brown Book that I printed from the Kidzone Preschool section.
We made Thumbprint Owls.

From his giant coloring book, he colored a Bear Coloring Page.
BROWN ACTIVITIES
He wore Brown Clothes. Can you tell that he loves to pose for the camera?!
From his Melissa and Doug Lace & Trace Set (affiliate link)
, he did the Dog & Rabbit Lacing Cards. His card usually end up looking like a spider’s web when he finishes it… lol!

We watched an Interactive Online Story of Goldilocks & the Three Bears. This is neat because it prompts them to interact with the story. For example: Click on each one of the bowls to count them. My little guy LOVES to use the mouse- great practice for his fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
BROWN FOODS
pancakes with syrup
chocolate milk
pretzels
Hersheys candybar
SPANISH WORDS
These are the Spanish words that we practiced:
brown = cafe
bear = oso
dog = perro
rabbit = conejo
owl = buho
chocolate = chocolate (cho-co-LA-tay)
table = mesa
chair = silla
