Woohoo! It’s a NEW All About Colors Learning Pre-K/K Pack! {It’s almost been a year since I posted a new Pre-K/K Pack. Wow!} This pack works well around Saint Patrick’s Day or ANY time of year. Any time your child is ready to play and learn about colors and color words, it is a perfect fit! {The download links can be found at the END of this post.}
The activities in this Pre-K/K Pack are similar to the ones from Reading the Alphabet, a FREE 31-week reading curriculum for kids who know most letters and sounds and are ready to begin reading, but at a slower pace than a Kindergarten level just yet. You can find all our FREE Pre-K/K Packs here.

All About Colors Pack In Action
Here are a few images of my 4 year old in action from this past week. {I seriously wish I had a picture of her standing by the printer as each page printed…priceless!}
I printed off the color word cards and the third version of the emergent reader. She read the book with me and then copied the color word into the blank on the page. She was SO proud of herself and kept saying, “I’m doing Kindergarten work! I’m so smart!” I simply adore her confidence and motivation to learn.
In this activity, we sorted pictures on our table top pocket chart that rhyme or don’t rhyme with BLUE. Even NSis {3 years old} wanted to join in on this one, as her new favorite activity is rhyming.
Each pack has a beginning sounds cut and paste activity, but this one was more of a challenge. Instead of matching beginning sounds based on the picture, kids are matching them based on the color of the picture. For example, fox doesn’t match with F, but with O because it’s orange. Once she got the hang of it, she had it.
This girl LOVES to paint, so our color word coloring page became a painting page. I love the flexibility that more open-ended printables provide!
Her favorite thing to do with our sight word poke pages from Reading the Alphabet is for me to use a pen and put dots all around the poke page. So we did it with our crayon poke page, too. She takes our push pins {ours are kind of like these; we got ours at Target} and pokes through on the carpet. Yes, these are sharp, so I sit by her for this and put them all away when she’s finished.
There are MANY more activities included in our All About Colors Pack. We are never able to get to them all and that’s okay. She may want to do some of them again next year in Kindergarten!
