Things That Are Green

This is one of the fun craft ideas for preschool, toddler activities and preschool kids games.

Ages 2 - 5
Need: newspapers or magazines, glue, index cards, green crayons

Go through papers or magazines together and tell your child to point out pictures or things he sees that are green.

You can also use postcards, greeting or Christmas cards.

Try to get various shades to help him learn the different green colors.

Cut out different shades and help him glue them on the index cards. Explain the various shades of light, medium and dark green.

Let him have different colored green crayons and draw his own picture on one of the index cards.

Tell him to point out anything green that is in the room.

Maybe someone in the family has green eyes. Or your son has a favorite green shirt.

Your daughter has a favorite green ribbon she loves to put in her hair.

Gather all these things up and compare the different colors of green. Probably no two colors will be exactly alike!

What holidays is the color green associated with? Christmas and St. Patrick's day for sure!

There are green trees at Christmas and green garland. St Patrick's Day has green shamrocks. Easter can have green colored eggs.

Trees are green in the spring and summer but not in the fall and winter in certain areas of the world.

There is green jello, green tea and green koolaid. Apples are green and so are grapes.
