Colour shade pegging

This activity i found on an inspiring website
http://totschool.shannons.org/

I found our colour shade samples at "bristol" paint store. Just use two cards of each colour sample with one being your colour chart which i backed with a harder cardboard to keep it stiff while the peg was going on and the other sample card is cut up into strips and glued onto a peg.
Tara matches the shades together while practising the important skill of squeezing pegs open.
Then self checks her work by turning the card over and seeing if her stickers match. Great activity to not only use fine motor skills that are so important for school readiness but opens a language opportunity for colours with light and darkest.
