Wee Sing & Learn Colors

by Pamela Conn Beall, Susan Hagen Nipp, Yudthana Pongmee (Illustrator)

From the best-selling Wee Sing series comes a harmoniously fun way to learn about colors! Children learn colors on the farm through music and charming illustrations. A colorful farm shows off its pink pigs, brown horse, black hen, orange pumpkins, red wagon and more. In a simple yet very inviting way, this book teaches children to learn colors by looking at one object of a color, then finding more objects of the same color. The final spread shows the entire farm, encouraging children to find all the colors they have just learned. Each page includes a song about each color---kids will love to sing along!

This book contains all of the basic colors for children to learn/know. Each page is dedicated to one color. Each color gives an example and asks readers to find other objects in the picture with that same color. This book is a farm theme, and in the end it asks the readers to identify all the colors in the farm.

This book is for simple readers, and I love the concept of children pointing out other objects with a certain color. I enjoy the vibrant pictures and farm theme throughout the book. I like at the very end it shows what happens when certain colors mix and what color you'll get.

I would read this book to younger students. I would read the story and see if they point out colors of objects on the page. I would also make sure children know the spelling of the basic colors in the book. I love colors so I would want students to explore those colors and try mixing colors to see that result.

Good interaction for a toddler.

Seriously, it does not take a 3 year old 1 minute 45 seconds to finish each page. That is not a friendly pace.
