Fruit Color Matching -To help develop color recognition, visual perception and fine motor skills
In this activity, children practice both color recognition and visual perception by looking at the colors on the color cards and interpreting the colors they see as the colors of different fruits. They also practice fine motor control by putting the picture of that colored fruit on the pole in the same position as the color on the card. Let’s get started.

How to Set Up
