*Use these patterns to make stick puppets that the children can hold up as you sing.
Write the color word and put a picture clue by it on a sentence strip. Pass these out for the children to hold up as you sing.
Cut a 7” circle out of the top of a file folder. Add ears, tails, and other features for each animal. Children hold it up around their face as you sing.
*Make up additional verses for other colors. For example, a pink flamingo, tan turtle, grey goat, white sheep, etc.
