Kaia has just started getting into reading. She’s really not had much of an interest until I started introducing fun games and stories. I found this game through Pink and Green Mama (the original game is at The Snail’s Trail). It has everything my daughter loves… rainbows, paint chips, secret peak through windows, funny make up words…. So, I ran out to the local paint store to snatch up some chips. I felt so devious! Kaia loves it. She shows it to everyone who comes over.
Sometimes, I’ll hold all of the cards and say “Pick a card, any card!” and she loves it. It’s like a magic trick.
Leif really enjoys the game too!
Sorry it’s so blurry…
I love seeing these word cards spread out all over the floor!
What a fantastic gift this would make for a new reader!
what a great idea! i used to have tons of paint samples back in my interior design days that we’d have to throw away when the ‘new’ line arrived each year. i wish i’d held on to some of them now!
good thing greg still works in an architectural firm! i’ll place my order with him this weekend. 🙂

What a neat idea! My youngest is just getting into reading too…she would love it! I’m off to get me some five finger discount paint chips! 😉 LOL
Thank you for the great idea to use with my children.
