Playing and Learning with Colors {and After School Link Up} | This Reading MamaThis past week at the After School Link Up, there were several COLORFUL posts, exploring all kinds of subjects. Here are just a few of my favorites:

Spanish 4 Kiddos shared an adorable rainbow printable to help kids learn their numbers in Spanish.

Spring Art for Kids: Drawing Outside with Colored Sand~ Buggy and BuddyBuggy and Buddy had fun with some colorful art outside.

 

Do you know how to make a paper polyhedron? Yeah, neither do I! But follow Relentlessly Fun, Deceptively Educational’s tutorial and you can! How cool is that?
