Yellow Color Arts and Crafts

You Are My Sunshine
Need: tag board circle cutout, yellow tissue paper pieces, yellow streamers, gold glitter, and glue.
Have the child glue the yellow tissue paper pieces all over the circle cutout to cover it.

Then sprinkle glitter over circle. Finish by attaching the yellow streamers to the edges to create a sun.

Lemon Prints
Cut a quantity of lemons in half lengthwise. Set several aside to dry slightly. Store the remaining in the refrigerator. Then gather: drying lemon halves, white construction paper, newspaper, and yellow paint.

Pour the yellow paint into a pan, and have the child dip the lemon into it. Dab onto newspaper, and then have them make a print on the construction paper.

After you finish the prints, make lemonade with the remaining lemons!

 

Yellow Color Games and Activities

Yellow Day Activities
Have a “Yellow Day”, where you wear yellow, eat yellow foods, do lots of things outside in the sun. Have lots of arts and crafts that involve the color yellow, or yellow items. You can do these things all on one day, or split them up so that you can do one thing each day.

You can also play games that involve yellow: Count yellow counters, name as many things that are yellow as you can, plant yellow flowers and many many more.

Sparkling Yellow Bottles
Fill a 16 oz. empty plastic soda bottle with water and enough light corn syrup to thicken. Pour in glitter, confetti, either in yellow or gold, and seal the bottles securely. Let the children shake and have fun!

 

Yellow Color Recipes and Snacks

Lemonade
Show the children how you can squeeze fresh lemons to make your own juice. And then let them go wild trying it for themselves!

Be sure to have plenty of sugar on hand to make your lemonade with.

Straight lemon juice will get you a LOT of sour expressions and pucker-ups!

Butter
Use butter on everything, mashed potatoes, toast, etc.

More yellow foods
Scrambled eggs
Squash (Fried, most kids will eat it!)
Bananas
Golden Delicious Apples
Cornbread
Lemon cake/cookies

 

Yellow Color Songs, Poems and Finger Plays

Sally Go Round the Sun
(Tune: Here we go Looby-Loo)
Sally go around the sun,
Sally go around the moon,
Sally go around the chimney-pots
On a Sunday afternoon!
