My Montessori Journey: Rainbow with colored chips

Rainbow with colored chips

This little color activity is on my shelves for March. I printed the rainbow from Kidssoup. It was intended to be used with colored Froot Loops cereal. I cut around it an glued it to green construction paper and laminated it. Then I added a little bowl of colored chips. Below you can see a blurry photo of how I have it on the tray.

Below is what the completed rainbow looks like. The children have enjoyed placing the circles onto the arches to make a beautiful rainbow.

We did this activity during a meeting when I needed ds to stay quiet. :) We used fruit loops and he lined them up and then had a little snack. Worked perfectly (and kept him entertained and quiet) during the meeting.

Cute idea! Thank you!
