Just want to share what I did to make the twins memorize the colors., because I can see that Jeymie is having hard time determining the color. Like what she did when the teacher told them to color the apple with red, she colored it brown.so the fresh apple becomes a rotten one hahaha. I don't know if she insist on using the brown color or what..but I'm afraid she's having a color blindness haha Exaggerated mom!

| Red apples turns brown apple(rotten apple) |

So to help them recognize color I search the net on how to introduce colors.,

| Ice cream Colors |

| Close Up:) |
I made this in the office and when done I bring home and paste in our wall..The twins were too happy and participate in our color asking game maybe because they find the visual aid so nice hehe:)
So far so good one by one, I let them memorize the color and jeymie's ever favorite color was black! She's having hard time remembering brown and their ever favorite color was blue. If they don' know the color they just answer me it's blue mama..
I just wish this ice cream colors will help you recognize even just the basic colors.
well done! Identifying colors in this way makes easy for kids...
TumugonBurahinThat's a clever way of teaching colors to kids :)
TumugonBurahinThat's a very good idea. What I did with Sophia was bought a poster with colors and everyday i read it to her, no pressure then one day out of nowhere, she told me. Mr sun is yellow. hehehehe :)
TumugonBurahinVery creative mommy! I'm sure your twins will memorize the colors the soonest :)
TumugonBurahinAlso try the barney song sis abt colors... =) -- SP Mommyangel--
TumugonBurahinVery creative, Fun and clever way to teach kids. Thanks for sharing!

That's a good idea to make them learn about colors. :) I hope Jeymie won't confuse red with brown anymore after this activity of yours. :)
TumugonBurahinvery creative idea!
TumugonBurahinanyways, I have a friend that's color blind, he said that when he was little, he colored a heart brown.. (sorry).. so he relied on the words written on the crayons paper cover labeling what the color is..
Just like you, I'm also a paranoid mom! I know my little girl knows the colors but sometimes she just wants to annoy me. good luck with the colors and the twins!
TumugonBurahinI saw my niece doing the same thing. I keep buying her a coloring book but she always does 1 color per image XD
TumugonBurahinI think she recognizes the colors but just doesn't want to use them properly. Maybe it's the kids way of being a creative genius??!
But I'll be doing this when I have my own kid, to match the word with the color.
Maybe you can progress to a bring-me kind of game where they give you all the color red they can find.
nice effort, your kids will surely appreciate it
TumugonBurahinThat's a great way to introduce colors to kids! Good job!
TumugonBurahinThat's one hell of a great job mom! :) Nice tips there! Thanks for sharing.

Great idea, our young one is learning so many new things as he approaches 2 yrs old. This will come in handy
TumugonBurahinNice one. I will do this for my 2-year old son.
TumugonBurahinthat's a great idea to teach kids. just keep it more fun for them.
TumugonBurahinGood idea ah :) Kids learn better when there's fun going on
TumugonBurahinthanks for sharing this idea! Training the kids on the colors using ice cream is really ok!
TumugonBurahinHaving a fun time activity while learning is a good bonding experience as well for you and your babies..
Keep it up!

This is a good idea. My 3 1/2 will enjoy this type of activity too.
TumugonBurahinIf you were my mom, I will ask for the real ice cream. Hahaha! Clever idea, btw.
TumugonBurahinThat's a very nice idea! You did great. I always ask my 3 yrs old niece on what color is she wearing it also help her to remember colors her fave is pink and just like your twins If she cannot recognized a color she simply answers pink haha! :))
TumugonBurahinWow, charts were also a familiar sight in our home back in the day. Hope your one half of the duo catches up with her color identification skills soon. :)
TumugonBurahinGreat idea. The rainbow color chart was the one that helped my little one most when she was learning her colors
TumugonBurahinYour twins are so adorable. I have always thought how nice it'd be to have twin kids of my own. Double the trouble, double the fun. haha! But God gave my four so it's x2 of what I asked (but not quadruplets! lol!)
TumugonBurahinI'm sure your ice cream color would help the twins a lot. :_)
Love your ice cream color chart. I'm sure your kids will be able to identify the colours soon. My 21 month old has just started to recognise blue and pink.
TumugonBurahinThat's a very creative way for teaching colors!
TumugonBurahinmaybe i should suggest this to my sister too. this is an interesting way to teach kids about colors.
TumugonBurahinYour twins are so cute.. I'm sure they'll be able to memorize all the colors soon especially with such an appealing visual aid.. ^^
