Check back every Monday through Thursday for ideas to have more fun all summer long.
Need more ideas? Try this one to get you set for anytime boredom sets in…
On with today’s idea…
Pick a color of the rainbow and go on a color walk (indoors or out), collecting things of only one color.
How many shades of your color have you found?
What is the lightest item you found? Darkest? Did you find anything that surprised you?
What was the biggest item? Smallest item? How did your items get to be the color they are?
To make it more exciting, you could set a timer and challenge your child to find as many things of one color within a set time limit, going through all the colors of the rainbow 5 minutes at a time.
If you’re feeling really crafty, you could take photographs of each color’s collection, laminate them and turn them into color flash cards for a smaller child.
Hope you have a colorful, fun day without any boredom!
