Flower Color Sorting: A Springtime Favorite
One classroom-favorite activity for spring is flower-themed color sorting. Students can match flower shapes to color mats or clip cards, group items by shade, or even go on a classroom “color hunt” using flower visuals as guides. Whether you’re using printed materials or digital tools, this activity adds a seasonal spark to learning centers or morning tubs.

Ideas to Extend the Activity:

• Pair the colored flowers with real spring objects or nature walk finds.

• Create a class flower garden on the wall with students sorting and placing flowers by color.

• Encourage students to draw or paint their own colorful spring garden after the activity.

Spring + Learning = Joyful Classrooms
Adding color-based learning into your spring lesson plans helps keep young learners engaged and excited. Whether you’re teaching in a classroom or at home, seasonal color sorting is a simple, effective way to support essential preschool and kindergarten skills.
