What you need

Paper and large child-appropriate crayons in two colors.

Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.

Let's make it happen

  1. Draw a large flower with four petals. Write 1 on two petals and 2 on the other two.
  2. Make a key beside the flower: write 1 next to a mark in one color and 2 next to a different color.
  3. Find each petal's number and color it using the key. Add a stem and leaves if you like.

Adult stays beside the child and helps write or read the numbers as needed.
