Orange Tiger
Oh, I saw an orange tiger,
A tiger, a tiger;
Oh, I saw an orange tiger
With lots of black stripes
With stripes all in black
In the front and the back;
Oh, I saw an orange tiger
With lots of black stripes.

Learning Colors for Kids: Black Orange Purple
Try This
Today's colors are orange and black. Can your child think of an animal that is orange and black? Give a name to the animal and then tell a story about the animal. Have your child move like that animal (swim like a fish, walk like a tiger, slither like a snake), then draw a picture to go with the story.
Go on a scavenger hunt inside and find all of the items in your home that are black and orange!
