As you may have noticed, young children love colours! It catches their eye and grabs their attention. A baby is born with monochrome vision and is unable to distinguish the difference between colours, it is not until around eight months when their colour vision is fully developed. By three to four years, a child can confidently recognise, name and differentiate basic colours as frequent exposure can help strengthen this skill.

Colour is not only exciting for a child, but it also helps with their learning.

Having a strong knowledge of the different colours is useful in many situations that children will become exposed to. Learning these colours allow them to recognise significant visual hues such as red as a code for danger and the meaning behind traffic lights. It is not only useful for the curriculum delivery but also useful outside of the curriculum too — knowing the difference between a red and a blue coloured toy is a vital skill

Being able to recognise colours, assists with educational skills too such as creative writing. Describing an object without saying its colour is difficult! Similarly, when they are exercising their imagination when creating a story, colour is an important part of descriptive techniques.

An abundance of research has been carried out on the effects of colour on the brain. Some experts claim that different colours enhance learning in different ways:

• Blue — a colour that encourages creativity, if overused however, it can bring the mood down in a room. A cool blue enhances relaxation levels in individuals.
• Yellow — a colour of happiness for children, as it is associated with sunshine which can lift the mood and excite a child due to its vibrant appearance.
• Orange — this enhances critical thinking and memory.

When a teacher is in a brightly lit colourful classroom, it makes them happier as we fully understand psychology behind colours. Research has shown that colours are more memorable than monochrome too — a bright and colourful classroom makes new learned experiences stick in the mind.

At CHS,we fully expose children to colours and the language surrounding it,we understand colours. From decorating our classroom to introducing age appropriate games based on colour, there are plenty of ways that we have incorporated colours into the our environment.

Let them play with brightly coloured foodstuffs such as jelly and develop their fine motor skills,At CHS there are colour-based games that we have introduced into the classroom too.How about colour eye-spy, colour matching memory games or presenting coloured flashcards and encouraging pupils to name them? We have used connecting colours to enhance and connect pupils to appropriate learning.
