How Do Kids Learn Colors?
- Kids are so curious about the world around them. It is natural for them to start looking at how things are similar and different even from a very young age. Color is one of those things they understand quickly when shown.
- Introducing the primary colors first is suggested. Showing kids how the red color can be on a leaf, a car, in a crayon, on a house, etc. is key to their understanding that colors aren’t objects, but something that helps them describe the object.
