Beautiful Rainbow

One day the sun was shining bright. (Hold up right hand for sun)
But clouds came along, it was dark as night. (Hold up left hand for clouds)
The rain began to sprinkle down. (Wiggle both hands for rain coming down)
Soon it was raining all over town.
But when the clouds had passed on by, (Move both hands to the right)
A beautiful rainbow stretched across the sky. (Left hand makes arc over head from right to left)

If You Are Wearing Red

About the Song

“If you are wearing red” Lyrics

About the Song

Yellow, red, blue… How many colors do your little ones know? Colors are one of the easiest topics for kids when learning English, given that they’re surrounded by a good amount of toys, clothes, and materials of the brightest shades and tones of colors. Every day, parents have a myriad of opportunities to teach -and reinforce- this topic, with songs, for example. The “If you are wearing red” song helps the little ones learn about the basic colors to help them start defining their world.

Nursery rhymes serve multiple purposes in children’s life: to start learning new words, to help them assimilate basic concepts, to entertain them, and also, to make learning more interesting and natural. Even though learning colors in English is quite simple, usually children start associating the shades with certain items, it’s difficult for them to grasp what a color is. This is why is best to start with the three basic colors and then expand to the secondary and tertiary colors.

In this children’s song, the little ones will experience color through something that they are quite familiar with: clothing items! In the video, they’ll see several clothing items on the screen: a winter coat, a sweater, a vest, jeans, a shirt, a T-Shirt. These items come in different colors, so the little ones can practice guessing the name of the item of clothing, and also what color it is. Also, they will see Lisa the Cat, she’s trying on some different dresses in different colors. As she does this, she is chanting about what color she is wearing, then she asks the little ones to perform an action depending on the color they are wearing.

This song for kids can also be used as a fun rhyming game to play with the whole family! Ask your family members to make a circle and sing the song while doing the right action for each part of it, according to the lyrics. So, if a person is wearing red, then that person should shake its head! To complement the song and extend the fun, you can try making up your own rhymes. For example, ask your little ones to say a color that they like, let’s say…white! Now, you just have to find a word that rhymes with that color and that can be turned into an action. It could be “upright”. Now, you can chant “If you’re wearing white, stand upright!”. This way, using the melody you already have, you can keep incorporating more vocabulary in English to practice at home.

With this in mind, let’s start practicing clothes vocabulary with our little ones with this awesome singing game for kids!

“If you are wearing red” Lyrics

If you are wearing red, shake your head
If you are wearing red, shake your head
If you are wearing red
Then please shake your head
If you are wearing red, shake your head

If you are wearing blue, touch your shoe
If you are wearing blue, touch your shoe
If you are wearing blue,
Then please touch your shoe
If you are wearing blue, touch your shoe

If you are wearing green, bow to the queen
If you are wearing green, bow to the queen
If you are wearing green,
Then please bow to the queen
If you are wearing green, bow to the queen

If you are wearing yellow, shake like Jell-O
If you are wearing yellow, shake like Jell-O
If you are wearing yellow,
Then please shake like Jell-O
If you are wearing yellow, shake like Jell-O

If you are wearing brown, turn around
If you are wearing brown, turn around
If you are wearing brown,
Then please turn around
If you are wearing brown, turn around

The influence of color on planning and communication

Understanding your mood is important not only for successful planning of activities, but also for effective communication with people.

Researchers at the University of New South Wales have discovered that being in a bad mood improves memory. Understanding your mood is important not only for successful activity planning, but also for effective communication with people.

Choose from the suggested colors the one you like best. Decide fast! The first answer that comes to mind will be correct.

"Joyful" colors Red, orange, yellow - all shades of fire evoke positive emotions.

Red symbolizes fire, life, energy, will, struggle, passion.

If you chose red, you are full of vitality and energy, resolute, self-confident. With your energy, you inspire everyone who is nearby to work overtime, and after work go to the club. But this color is aggressive, dominant. That is why the person who chooses it runs the risk of being in constant emotional stress. In addition, he puts a lot of pressure on loved ones with his pressure. If you feel constant excitement, as if you drank a lot of coffee, we advise you to relax. This can be done simply by switching to another activity. Leave thoughts about the unfinished project in the office, and at home - watch a movie, think about the design of new curtains for the living room. If you can’t calm down, you just need to get rid of the accumulated energy - go in for sports. Swim in the pool, go for a run. Most likely, right after that you will be a little exhausted, but you will fall asleep very quickly, and your body will get a well-deserved rest.

Orange color improves mood and self-esteem. It symbolizes movement, joy, sensuality, cheerfulness, sociability.

Orange is chosen by those who have a cheerful, joyful mood. This state is the most suitable for organizing a party, a meeting with friends or a conference with partners. You will certainly turn out to be the soul of the company, because you attract others with an “orange” mood. But if you choose only this color all the time, you may lack seriousness and focus. In this case, the cheerful feeling becomes a little artificial. Do you remember people who, when under stress, cannot stop laughing, and this laughter seems nervous? This is how you look now. Perhaps this is how a defense mechanism works, which tries to protect you from some kind of experience. We advise you to sit down, calmly think about what worries you so much. Maybe a quarrel with parents or a boyfriend who went on a long business trip. In such a situation, one should not hide from the problem, but try to solve it. Separate all the accumulated questions according to the degree of importance and pay attention only to the most important ones.

Yellow color is associated with intelligence, can positively influence cognitive activity (it is known that it improves memory), helps to make decisions, generate new ideas. Yellow is considered the “happiest” color, representing warmth and joy.

If you chose yellow, you are open to new knowledge, sociable, calm, rational and inquisitive. In this mood, you are good at solving complex problems. However, the thirst for knowledge can lead to information overload and, therefore, overwork. In such a situation, it is very important to learn to perceive everything new in a dosed way, considering each fact.

But you shouldn't get carried away with thinking too much. For example, if you decide to start looking for a new job, this responsible business, of course, should be given special attention. However, sending resumes to 40 companies at once is overkill. Try to be simpler and easier on issues that do not require an immediate solution.

"Calm" shades Blue, green and purple colors are associated with peace and serenity.

Green color calms and relaxes, creates a sense of security. It symbolizes life, faith, harmony, naturalness.

The choice of green indicates a contradiction between inner feelings and their outer manifestations. From the outside, you look calm, unruffled. However, deep inside, a rich life boils.

Most likely, at the moment there is a reassessment of values, you analyze the events that happened to you recently, draw conclusions. The inability to express your thoughts and feelings can lead to emotional fatigue. The best thing you can do is to release the accumulated emotions. Probably, those around you do not even know what is happening in your soul. Maybe someone close to you offended you, but you did not let him understand this. And now you are even more upset that the person did not show participation and did not ask for forgiveness. Share your experiences with a close friend, try to find words and describe what is happening inside you.

Blue color - soothes, promotes relaxation. Almost all shades of blue evoke positive emotions. symbolize purity, sincerity.

Unlike green, blue color symbolizes harmony, balance between inner experiences and their manifestation. If you choose blue, you have a calm, peaceful mood. You are relaxed and immersed in yourself, you are in harmony with the world. Perhaps even in love or feel sympathy for someone. Your mood can be called happy and romantic.

As a rule, this state is very pleasant and comfortable. True, if you have big achievements ahead of you (a responsible event at work or the need to quickly pack for a trip), you will need to cheer up. For example, draw up a clear action plan and monitor their implementation.

Violet inspires. Symbolizes wisdom, spirituality, artistry. The choice of purple indicates a rather controversial mood. You are sensitive and vulnerable, prone to dreams and fantasies. In addition, the “purple” mood sharpens your intuition, therefore, even without being able to explain something logically, you can determine the right direction for your activity on a sensual level.

Violet mood promotes creativity. However, getting carried away with the creation of a new project, you can forget about elementary things: have lunch, call your parents, go to an important meeting. We advise you to hang stickers with reminders around the apartment. On the refrigerator - "Eat me", by the phone - "Call mom." In such a situation, an alarm clock set for a certain time will be very effective when you need to leave the house or go to bed.

Restless shades These colors lack warmth, so they are perceived as detached, solemn, disturbing.

White contains all the colors of the spectrum and is considered neutral. It is associated with purity and innocence. Symbolizes peace, serenity, detachment, loneliness.

The choice of white indicates that you are tired of some events in your life. Perhaps she quarreled with a friend, experienced severe stress at work. Now you seem to be standing at a crossroads - you have every opportunity to continue the road, and you are free to choose any direction. Perhaps you want to “turn the page” and start from scratch. Give yourself the opportunity to think things through and move on, not stopping there. Do not be afraid to take on new things, try new opportunities. If you still don’t understand what exactly you want to achieve, “let go” of the situation, allow yourself to plunge into a state of doing nothing. It is possible that the answers will come by themselves.

Gray color is considered impartial, solemn, disturbing. He is often perceived as dull, inconspicuous and aloof. symbolizes stability, boredom, melancholy.

If you chose gray, you are in an anxious and restless mood. I want to "hide" from everyone. Perhaps this is just fatigue from past events (thesis defense, promotion at work and new responsibilities). Or maybe you are worried about an upcoming event - important negotiations with key clients, changes in your personal life. You can worry if everything goes well. To get rid of disturbing thoughts, understand the true reason that haunts. Maybe you're afraid of confusing research data during a presentation, or you're worried that you won't be able to clearly explain a complex topic of the thesis committee.

Do everything to protect yourself as much as possible: talk to your supervisor, repeat the text. In a word, turn to your loved ones for help, do not fight fears on your own. Otherwise, anxiety will interfere with a peaceful life.

Black has ambivalent properties: on the one hand, it creates a feeling of security and stability, on the other hand, it hinders decision-making. Symbolizes peace, sadness, depression, death.

The preference for black indicates a tense mood. You may be experiencing stress or depression, even loss. You feel unhappy and unlucky. You need solitude. Give yourself the opportunity to experience this state, allow yourself to relax and understand everything that is happening.

The best way is to be alone, to mourn the loss. If you have lost your job, allow yourself to come to terms with this thought. Now is the time to pamper yourself, do what you like. For example, forgetting about the diet, eat a piece of delicious cake or drink aromatic coffee.

A little later, you can turn to a loved one (mother, girlfriend, friend) for support. But only to those who are able to listen, support, and not say: “I told you!” If all these methods do not help to cope with a depressed state, it may be worth seeking help from a psychologist.

A person's character by colors: what color determines the character

Your color is not necessarily the one that prevails in your wardrobe, or the one that you paint the walls in your apartment from year to year. To determine your color, you should listen to yourself. Think about what colors inspire you. The color that you imagine in your dreams determines your character

Elizabeth of Heaven

So, choose your favorite color and find out what it means.

Red

The color of active people. Not just active, but bright, desperate. It is from such people that heroes and revolutionaries are made. Before us, most likely, is a born leader, able to captivate with his ideas. A person who does not tolerate routine and stagnation.

Orange

Cheerful, easy-going and enterprising individuals choose it! They are always looking for new ways and believe that there are not so many hopeless situations. Infect with their optimism and enthusiasm all around. They often like hiking and singing around the campfire. They always know what to do with children and how to amuse adults. Originals and fidgets.

Yellow

As a rule, a yellow lover is a calm, balanced and optimistic person who knows his own worth. Accurately defines goals and routes to them. He knows how to keep a clear head in the most difficult situation. Often these are honest and morally strong people. They are not ready to sacrifice principles for the sake of momentary gain. Patient and observant. They have an enviable willpower.

Green

The color of peace and hope. It is chosen by people striving for harmony, tranquility and justice, who cannot imagine themselves without constant development and movement forward. Lovers of green, most likely, will study all their lives, because they make high, if not overestimated, demands on themselves.

They often have remarkable patience and a sharp mind.

Blue

Impressive and, most likely, very kind and helpful people. Not without a penchant for science and discovery. From the flow of various information, they are able to highlight the essence. It seems that it is they who can fairly judge any most intricate dispute without causing offense to any of the parties. However, no one canceled the tendency to soar in the clouds! Among blue lovers there are many desperate travelers and extreme people.

Blue

These people are as incomprehensible as the ocean itself. Character can become their main problem: you need to be able to control your emotions. They are punctual and prudent, value prosperity and comfort. Much attention is paid to sensual pleasures. They can sit for hours in front of a waterfall, sea, fire and cherry blossoms and admire the picture. Often they themselves are seriously busy with creativity. At the same time, they are often not too easy to lift.

Violet

Not a fast decision maker. They need to think everything over properly, to "sleep with the idea." They are not accustomed to endure a fiasco and therefore carefully prepare the ground for innovation. Therefore, they rarely fail.

Severe in appearance, "violet" - merry fellows in the company, witty and groovy. They highly value freedom and independence.

Black

Strict and obligatory. They love to impress others. Sexual and passionate natures.

Before us are individuals with a certain theatrical character, able to charm and fall in love with themselves. However, as a rule, they have one enviable feature - the ability to say a firm no.

Fundamentally honest people. Most likely, for them to lie is to go against themselves. Willingly respond to requests for help and support. At the same time, they strive for success and love public recognition. Dreamy and responsive.

They are not afraid to shock the audience and seem to feed on emotions from the effect produced. Like water fish, they need the admiration of others!

Brown

Restrained nature. They look at the world with severity and realize its imperfection. However, these are not mere bystanders. They strive to correct the situation for the better and often they manage to change the established order.

Principled and serious personalities, reliable comrades. Due to their conservatism, they do not always understand humor and can be seriously offended by pranksters.

The expression “gray eminence” seems to have been coined about lovers of this color.
