Learning Colors in French - One color a meal

Are you just starting teaching your children their colors in French? Why not have a whole meal in the color you are trying to teach them? That way during the meal you can repeat the name of the color in French lots of times.

For example:
Orange - mandarin oranges, carrots, mac & cheese, cantelope, pimento cheese
Green - salad, bell peppers, zuchini squash, green beans
Red - red peppers, cherries, strawberries, strawberry ice cream, red beans
Yellow - corn, yellow butter bread, pinapples, bananas, noodles with a yellow cream sauce
Blue - blueberries (okay you'd probably have to cheat on this on and use some food dye)

Painting toast in French!

Painting toast is something my kids like to do. You can throw a little French in it and then you have a French lesson.

All you have to do is melt some butter and put a tad bit of food coloring in it. After you toast the bread, you can put it on a plate and let your kids paint their toast. You can have them say the colors in French as they paint their breakfast.
