Learning Colors Together- Week 2

JPFRC team in partnership with Kids Up front Foundation presents video series. All of our activities and songs are related to colors and color mixing. To begin with, let’s do a fun activity.  

Activity 1: What are Color patterns?

A pattern is a series of pictures or colors that repeats- same thing that keeps happening over and over. Take a look at the pattern below and see if you can find the missing color.

Red-red-blue-blue-red-red -blue -____ 

Red-red-yellow-yellow-red-_____-yellow-yellow

Green-yellow-purple-green-yellow-purple- green-______

Red- purple- yellow-red- _____-yellow-red-purple

The answers for the color patterns are in the video. You can also download the printable copy of the color patterns here. 

Do you know there were three little mice who learnt about colors and color mixing? Are you ready to learn as well? For that, you should read the book ‘Mouse Paint’ with our program facilitator Lauren. Let’s read it together!

Lyrics of the rhymes in the video 

  1. I can sing a rainbow: 
    Red and yellow and pink and green 
    Purple and orange and blue 
    I can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow too. 
    Listen with your eyes, 
    Listen with your eyes 
    Sing everything you see. 
    I can sing rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow with me. 
    Red and yellow and pink and green 
    Purple and orange and blue 
    I can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow too.

  2. Call the colors song 
    Red-red, touch your head 
    Blue-blue, tie your shoe 
    Brown-brown, touch the ground 
    White-white, take a bite 
    Black-black, touch your back 
    Purple-purple, draw a circle 
    Pink-pink, take a wink/blink 
    Grey-grey, shout hurray!

  3. One little red fish 
    One little red fish swimming in the water,  
    swimming in the water, swimming in the water 
    One little red fish swimming in the water, bubble-bubble pop.

    Two little blue fish swimming in the water,  
    swimming in the water, swimming in the water 
    Two little blue fish swimming in the water, bubble-bubble pop. 

    Three little green fish swimming in the water,  
    swimming in the water, swimming in the water 
    Three little green fish swimming in the water, bubble-bubble pop. 

    Four little yellow fish swimming in the water,  
    swimming in the water, swimming in the water 
    Four little yellow fish swimming in the water, bubble-bubble pop.

  4. Laugh a little 
    Laugh a little- Laugh a little, ha-ha-ha 
    Sing a little- sing a little, la-la-la! 
    Clap a little- clap a little, clap-clap-clap 
    Dance a little- dance a little, tap-tap-tap 
    Spin a little- spin a little, round and round 
    Rest a little-rest a little, we all fall down.
