Directions
Before watching: Ask children to notice how the children in the video use color to help them play hide and seek outdoors.
After watching: Ask, What were some of the hiding placing the children chose? How did color help them hide? Look at what you’re wearing today. Where do you think would be a good place for you to hide? Where could a black cat hide? What about a polar bear? What about a frog?
