Eat Your Colors

ages 2-4

Supplies

Colorful fruit and vegetables.

Activity Detail

My two-year-old twins love shouting out colors. One fun way to encourage them to eat fruit and to show off their knowledge of colors is to cut up a fruit salad with strawberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, kiwi etc. and then shout out 'eat something red...eat something orange.' They love picking out the correct fruit and eating it. You can try this with veggies, too. Of course, if you really want to be a hero...let them play the game with M&M's or fruit chews!
