Color Collage

When you’re two, colors are a BIG deal. Another BIG deal is anything to do with crayons, paint, markers, glue, and stickers. So let’s put them together and get a full 30 minutes of entertainment!

I made a pass through the dollar store and spent four whole dollars on this little project. I picked up the following supplies:

  • foam board
  • a pack of stickers based on colors (for each color it had the name of the color and an object of the same color)
  • bags of colored stickers/balls/anything colorful

On the foam board we used a bowl to trace a circle/square for each color.

We also put the word labels on each color box before adding the rest of the collage.

Throw some colorful things in a bowl and let them go to town gluing and sticking the colorful items to the right area of the board. We also used dot paint and leftover valentines candy.

And before you know it you’ll have a color collage to proudly display in the kitchen. They love pointing to it and reminding me who put which sticker where.
