Directions to make lollipops... Cut
three inch circles from construction paper (red, blue, green, yellow,
orange, and purple.) Make three of each color. Glue craft
sticks to each colored circle to make a lollipop. Have the
children sit in a circle. One child is "it" and skips
around the circle holding the lollipops in a coffee can while the
other children chant.

It stops in front of a child who closes their eyes and picks out a
lollipop. If the child guesses the correct color then they may take a
turn being "it."

Place different color hoops around the room. Play music. Once the music
stops ask the children to stand in a red hoop etc. This will encourage color
recognition. You can call two colors and ask the children to count how many
is in each hoop. This will also help with number recognition.
