This week we’re talking colors! There are so many fun ways and books to use to teach about colors. For this week’s Literacy Snack Idea Colors, we will be using Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes by James Dean.

“Pete the Cat goes walking down the street wearing his brand-new white shoes. Along the way, his shoes change from white to red to blue to brown to WET as he steps in piles of strawberries, blueberries, and other big messes!”
For our snack today, we will be having an array of things that Pete stepped in, strawberries, blueberries, and mud! (Well, we’re having chocolate pudding as our mud!)
