This week I'm going to share some multicultural story books Hazel and I have discovered and liked thus far. With one of them we have tried a painting activity, so I will share that with you as well. Some musical resources for this book would be DARIA's song Beautiful Rainbow World (on her Beautiful Rainbow World CD and her I Have a Dream CD) and Kevin So's song Individual (on his Individual CD and Along the Way CD). (I will share more about Kevin So's music at a later date, but Individual goes along with this book, so I'm sharing it here.)

The Colors of Us--Exploring all the browns of the world
This week I'm going to share some multicultural story books Hazel and I have discovered and liked thus far. With one of them we have tried a painting activity, so I will share that with you as well.

The Colors in Nature on a Walk around the Neighborhood
After playing with our senses in our own yard the other day, Hazel and I took a walk around the neighborhood. She wanted to ride in her stroller which didn't bother me since I could get more exercise in. We decided to look and see what colors we could see in nature as we walked around our neighborhood. I didn't start taking pictures of what we saw until the last part of the walk, but here are a few things we saw.
We also discussed all the green and brown we saw everywhere and every shade of green.
Then we drew in our journal a day or so later remembering what we saw.
Hazel loves having me draw with her. I tried to label whatever we drew, but didn't get them all. I think the red and green on the last page was a car with eyes.
Some books to go with this walk... Rainbow Sheep by Kim Chatel and What Does Bunny See? by Linda Sue Park.
