There is a blue butterfly high in the sky...

I thought it would be a good idea to show some of my work in the kinder garden.
There is a piece I am really proud of - the colours song. I was wondering how to teach them the colours and keep them interested. In youtube one can find plenty of nice (and not so nice) children's songs on the topic, i chose that one:

And to further help the learning process and to make it as a game I made paper butterflies out of colour paper, like that:

It turned out the children loved it. I've played that song and the butterflies with all ages - from 4 to 6,7, they all enjoy it and still ask for it. Of course, one is always running the risk of children being more into the game with the butterflies than into the song, but at the end, fun is more important. 
I found another butterfly song which is my favourite, it really sticks to you and it's sooo sweet. A lovely sunny start for the day :)
