Learning Colors

My (almost) two year old has been working on her colors. Here's a conversation we had some time ago while on a walk:
Me: What color is that car?
Daughter: Blue!
Me: Hmmm... actually it's red. What color is the grass?
Daughter: Blue!
Me: mmm... actually the grass is green.
Daughter: Grass... green!
Me: Exactly. What color is that house?
Daughter: House... blue!
Me: mmm... well, the house is white.

A brief pause. We both look around.

Me: Ok, what color are papa's jeans?
Daughter: blue!
Me (in my best praising voice): Exactly! Very good!
She's getting better.
