Learn and Grow System

Discover endless learning possibilities with our Colour Matching Mat, part of the Learn & Grow range — a modular 1–5 stage system designed to grow with your child.

🌈 Stage 1: Colour Matching & Recognition

• Match the colourful tokens to their spaces on the board to build early focus and visual recognition.

• Name each colour, practise saying them out loud, and find objects around you that match.

🎨 Stage 2: Sorting & Comparing (with add-on packs)

• Mix and match with other sets — grab your farm animals or transport pack for example and stick them to the correct colours.

• Compare shades (light vs dark), spot the odd one out, and explore similarities and differences to build reasoning skills.

🔠 Stage 3: Literacy & Numeracy Foundations (with add-on packs)

• Link colours to letters and sounds (e.g. “R is for Red”).

• Count and sort tokens by number or shade for early maths learning.

🧮 Stage 4: Deeper Numeracy and Literacy Learning

• Use your colours for a codebreaker game

• Explore patterns and sequences to strengthen logical thinking.

  • Bonus: Mix colours - what does red and blue make?

📝 Stage 5: Confident in Foundational Reading and Writing

• Create colour stories (“The red ball rolled to the blue house”).

• Use colours to support spelling, writing prompts, and pattern-based maths.

Why parents love it:

One board, endless activities.

Interchangeable tokens = no single-use clutter.

Designed to last from early years through to the end of primary school.

Supports EYFS skills: recognition, sorting, comparing, phonics, counting, and pattern-making.

Top Tip: Start with the Colour Matching Mat, then expand with extra token packs (letters, numbers, shapes, animals, emotions…) to keep learning fresh and exciting.

Brilliant!

Got this for my daughter who just turned 2, she is now able to recognise the colours and able to name then. Would definitely recommend!
