When teaching colors to your children this is a fun game. You make houses of different colors and a mouse that is small enough to hide behind them. You take turns with the children and have one close their eyes or leave the room and show the others which color house you are going to hide the mouse behind. The child comes back into the room and chooses a color (without touching them). You say, "Little mouse, little mouse are you in the ______ house?" You let the child look behind that color house AFTER you have finished the rhyme. Go through all of the colors until you find the mouse.
Another variation of this game is with bees and trees. Make the treetops different colors and say, "Little bee, little bee, are you in the _____ tree?" Obviously the options are endless with other animals/objects. Be creative!
