Read Where Is the Green Sheep? by Mem Fox. Pause throughout the book and ask the children to find a variety of sheep: "There are red sheep and blue sheep, wind sheep and wave sheep, scared sheep and brave sheep, but where is the green sheep?" Afterward, create a fun matching game for the children using cutout sheep in a variety of colors and with different facial expressions. Have the children turn over two sheep at a time to determine if they match. Have them describe the sheep as they play.
