5. Pink toe
The teacher calls out a colour and a body part. Pupils must find an object in the room that has
that colour and then touch the object with the selected body part. For example, if the teacher
calls out “red nose”, pupils need to find an object that is red and touch it with their nose. The
teacher continues calling colours and body parts.
To spice things up, you can add an element of competition to this game. Pupils that are too slow
in completing the task can be asked to sit down. The last remaining pupil is the winner. (This
activity teaches both the different colors and body parts.)
