Color Match Card Game

Toddlers delight in this card game-from start to finish! Kids design the cards and match the colors all by themselves. What a fun way to learn color names!

1. Who is Roy G. Biv? Let's find out!

2. What are the names of the colors in a Crayola® Large Washable Crayon box? The first letter of each color name matches with the letters of the name Roy G. Biv. For instance, R stands for red, O stands for orange and Y stands for yellow. What are the other colors? Here's a color game you can make and play!

3. To make cards: Use each crayon in the box. Color on one side of two index cards with each color. Fill the cards with bright colors. Make 16 cards, two of each color.

4. How to play: Lay all the cards with the colors facing down. Mix up the cards. Turn two cards over at a time. Name the colors. Do they match? If so, you have a pair. Try again! If they don't match, it's the other player's turn.

"What a fun way to learn colors! Older kids make designs and match those. I always take a box of crayons and index cards on my jobs."
Aditi J., teenage babysitter.

"We show toddlers how to make four cards first. They usually play 'solitaire'. When they want more challenge, they make more cards."
Lillie R., toddler assistant.

There are just three main colors: red, yellow, and blue. They are called primary colors. All other colors are made by mixing two or more of these colors together.
