Bring festive learning outdoors with our Christmas Colour Wheel Activity, specially designed to support early years outdoors learning through hands-on, play-based exploration.
Children take the colour wheel into the outdoor learning environment and search for Christmas-themed objects and natural materials that match each colour segment. From finding green leaves like Christmas trees to spotting red berries, decorations, or festive outdoor features, children develop colour recognition while connecting learning to the natural world.
This activity encourages children to move, explore, observe, and talk about what they discover, making it ideal for EYFS outdoor provision, forest school, and nature-based learning.
