Teaching A Toddler Colors 

I have this under the “How To” because while I know these little acorns and mushrooms can be purchases already painted. I figured why not make this into an activity. One thats fun for them and can teach them their colors as well. You can even do color theory by mixing colors to show them what they make, instead of just using green. You can mix blue and yellow to show them.
