Color Flash Cards

The first set includes 12 flash cards: red, yellow, blue, green, pink, orange, violet, purple, grey, black, brown and white. The classics! We also use them for find n’ seek games around the house, matching the color cards to objects in the house and garden or a fun challenge : everyone picks just one random color card and then writes down as many objects that they can find in 5 minutes or so.

Fun at parties – You decide the prizes! (perhaps something yummy the same color…). We’ll add more colors to these flash cards later… peacock green, peach or salmon pink, lemon yellow, olive, charcoal grey, scarlet red… What’s your favorite color? Tips These color printable flash cards are best printed on card stock paper as they feel nicer to handle and survive longer after repeated use.

It is also more suitable and widely used as reference hues for art activities. We’ll update with alternative color wheels later. You can use these color wheels as wall posters to make a kids room more colorful. Color in the blank ones or mix your pigments and experiment!
