C is for Colors
C de Colores (p**n: ko·lo·res)

Life is colorful, so is entertaining a toddler!

We're going through the colors in english and spanish. Sometimes my toddler says them in English sometimes in Spanish, but we haven't got to the place where he can identify them both at the same time. So I decided to do this fun craft.
You start with primary colors and start mixing from there. See all the wonderful colors and tones you can make.

We added pieces of paper to make it extra fun to color paper.

For older kids practice doing the letter C with play doh.

B is for Bubbles
B de Burbuja (p**n: bur·bu·has)

Everyone loves bubbles!!! We've seen all the sensory activities you can do with babies and kids, but this one is our favorite.

BUBBLE FOAM!.

You'll need:
🔵 Either dish soap, hand soap, or if it's a baby, use bubble bath soap.
🔵 For each cup of water use a teaspoon of soap whisk the water manually or with a mixer until you get the desired bubble foam. If you want more add another teaspoon of soap.
🔵 Add food coloring to make different colors.

You can add fish and boats for more fun

Teachings:
1. Words that begin with the same letter in English and Spanish.
2. Primary colors Blue (Azul), Yellow (Amarillo), and Red (Rojo)
3. Bubbles are a great sensory tactile activity.
4. I added the cursive and print handwriting of the letter B in chalk. Great excersize for the older kids to start tracing with chalk.
