At Home With Colours is full of learning activities for young children to do at home. Children, from 3 years old, will learn the five colours: red, blue, green, yellow, and black through colouring and matching activities. The book uses a variety of fun tasks to develop visual discrimination and encourage recognition of colours, and help with numbers, counting, and awareness of shape. The fun illustrations encourage using a pencil in a controlled way and improve hand-eye coordination. Useful tips support adults so that they can encourage learning gently - plus there are more than enough funky stickers to reward your child as they complete each activity! This book is ideal to build confidence in numeracy for a child's first years at school.
