Water Balloon Color Sort Activity

Practice colors with this simple and fun activity out in the sun!

Supplies needed:

• Water balloons
• Colored construction paper
• Optional water table

Simply choose some water balloon colors, fill them with water and head outside!

We grabbed colored construction paper to match the balloon colors and used these papers to help sort the balloons by colors.

We played this activity in a few different ways! First, we placed the construction paper pieces out on the ground and placed the water balloons in a bucket. We took out one water balloon at a time and talked about its color while placing it onto the correct matching paper.

We also played this activity by putting some of the water balloons in a water table nearby and had to scoop them out of there before sorting them by their colors!

Beware…the paper will get wet and so will everything else and this makes it so much fun! Splash, play and have the best time practicing colors!
