@topeadenugaofficial: Your child doesn’t have a problem learning colours. They may have a problem with how they’re being taught. If you point to a yellow banana and ask, “What colour is this?” don’t be surprised if your child says, “Banana.” Why? Because you’re asking them to identify two things at once, the object and its colour. Children learn best when we reduce confusion, not increase it. If you’re teaching colours, let the lesson be about colours. If you’re teaching fruits, let the lesson be about fruits. One concept at a time. Great teaching isn’t about giving children more information. It’s about presenting information in a way their brains can process. Sometimes, when a child gets the wrong answer, the problem isn’t the child, it’s the method. As parents and educators, our responsibility is to make learning simpler, clearer, and more meaningful. Because children don’t struggle to learn as much as they struggle with confusing instruction. Have you ever asked a child, “What colour is this?” and gotten the name of the object instead?

My 4-year-old daughter knows her colors and objects very well. Whenever you ask her the right question, she gives the correct answer. If you ask, “What color is this?” she’ll name the correct color. If you ask, “What is this?” she’ll correctly identify the object. She has never confused colors with objects::: she always answers according to the question she’s asked.🥰

Absolutely! That's why in Montessori we have a concept called concept isolation.

KIDS EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES NG :
This is so true. In Montessori and early years education, we call this isolating the difficulty,teach one concept at a time. If the goal is colours, use objects that are already familiar. If the goal is fruits, focus on fruits. Children learn faster when we reduce cognitive overload and allow them to master one idea before introducing another. Parents, save this and follow @KidsLearningLabNG for practical early years and Montessori-inspired learning tips that actually work at home.

I've learnt something new, no wonder when I use objects, my baby identifies the object and not the color when being asked.
