How to make the craft
To do this craft, it is very simple…. It's fun to make and play with young children later. The first thing you will have to do is select the number of swabs you want for your color mastery with ear swabs. Then it is necessary that you have the paint prepared and plastics so as not to stain in the creation process.
Take a cotton swab and dip the cotton part in the paint, whatever color you want. Then the other part of the swab will have to have a different color. Divide the colors into sticks so that you can later be able to play domino well, for example, 7 parts of each color you have, another 7 of another color and so on, until you complete the colors you have.
Ideally, there should be at least 5 different colors to make the game more fun for small colors. With this game, the little ones will learn the names of colors, their visual discrimination and also the motor skills of putting the swabs in the right place.
Once you have the sticks with the colors, let them dry and once they are ready ... you can start playing and have a great time with your young children!
