The My Many Colored Days kit contains twenty scarves in ten colors (one for each hand, or enough for an early childhood class), the book My Many Colored Days by Dr. Seuss, a music CD and Velcro for hanging the scarves. Children strengthen fine and gross motor skills as they dance with their scarves to the music. Cognitive and communication skills are practiced as children listen to the story, look at pictures, identify colors and explore emotions. The scarves and music provide lots of opportunities for pretend play.
