Experience builds a brain
Ajani is 2 1/2 years old . He is able to identify yellow, red, blue, orange, black, pink, and purple. He has had many experiences with colors. We have casually says to him this is a blue cup and this is a yellow cup and wow you are having fun pouring. During bath time he had two small cups for him to develop his pouring skills ,eye hand coordination skills. You need to introduce things once to the developing brain it does not forget get . Once your infant/toddler gets the idea he takes off running. Don't worry that your baby is not speaking he is storing all the information and once he begins to speak he will be expressing those thoughts. When Ajani began to speak the firs color he identified was blue because he was experiencing it each time he took a bath . It is easier to say than yellow is once he was able to say yellow he identified it. He did this when he was about 2.3 years old.
