Springtime Fun Challenge Day 5: Color Hunt!

Today's color hunt challenge will not only keep the kids busy, but it will help them practice their colors!


You can do the color hunt a couple different ways. If you are doing an Easter egg hunt, you can designate a color for each child so everyone gets the same amount of eggs. The color hunt is great all year round and especially on rainy days. Hide colorful objects all over the house and have your kids sort the objects they find by color.


Do you have Easter egg hunts with your kids? What are some ways you help your kids learn their colors?

Yes wedo Easter egg hunts. :)

My daughter loved "Baa, Baa Black Sheep" when she was younger, so I would always sing that and change out black for other colors.

This is such a great idea!
I think it would be cool even if it wasnt Easter. Ds is 8 and honest I don't even remember how we taught him.

Yes, we do egg hunts.   The kids love it.  I would do color hunts to help my kids learn their colors.  I'd show them something and tell them the color and then they would have to go and find a toy that is the same color, and I had color cards that I work with them.

Ds is only 20 months old but I think I'll continue my mom's Easter tradition of hiding the Easter basket and doing a sort of scavenger hunt for it.
