ACTIVITY:
- Use colours (crayons or pencils or chalks or cut out cardboard & glue) to decorate a brown paper bag with every colour of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and pink.
- Don't worry about the order of the colours or what they draw with young ones - just get every colour on there.
- Now go for a walk with your paper bag and try and see or collect something from each colour.

FEEDBACK: "we sat outside and did this with 3 year olds - the drawing part, on paper bags with coloured pencils. The kids were so involved with the drawing we will do the collecting tomorrow" Lesley @ early play
