At this point in his life Jude is a little sponge absorbing information all the time. It amazes me how quickly he can learn something and recite it weeks later. However, there are a few things that challenge him like learning his colors. I’m not sure why he has a hard time remembering his colors, I think it might be all the different variations of one color that throw him. (We’ve even tested to see if he is colorblind, which he is not.)
Goosie Cards offered me the opportunity to review some of their personalized flash cards so I thought I would design some to help him learn his colors. While I was looking at the site he saw the pre-designed colors and shapes cards and proclaimed he wanted those cards. So I decided to order the pre-designed cards since I knew he would already like them, plus it saved me a little work!
The cards are very nice. They are thick laminated cards that display the image and title of your choosing. He knows has mastered the shapes and is still working on the colors. I think this will be a very effective and fun for him to learn his colors. The key to having flash cards be effective is repetition so I’m planning to work them into our daily routine along with some of Kristy’s great tips on teaching colors to kids.

Christmas shopping online is the way to go. I do about 80% of my Christmas shopping online. As a busy mom to 4 boys I don’t have time to trek around town looking for the perfect gift. There are so many great online shops that offer unique items that make excellent Christmas gifts for anyone….
