Next: Find Something Orange - Colour Game for Kids →

Purple is a favourite colour for many little learners, and this free activity makes it easy to learn. Your child sees a small set of pictures and taps the one that is purple, like grapes, a brinjal or a pretty purple flower. The other pictures show red, yellow, green, blue and orange things, so children learn to look carefully and compare.

This colour game for kids is perfect for preschool and kindergarten children at home or in class. No reading is needed, so even very young learners can join in and feel proud of every correct answer.

How to play

Look at the pictures on the screen and say the name of each object out loud.
Find the object that is purple and tap or click on it.
If the answer is correct, cheer and move on to the next set of pictures.
After the game, walk around the room and find three real purple things together.

This activity helps your child build colour recognition, one of the first skills needed for sorting, matching and early maths. While choosing the purple picture, children also practise visual discrimination, careful looking and quick decision making. Naming each object, such as grapes, brinjal, banana or leaf, grows vocabulary and helps with clear speech. Because the pictures include red, blue, green, yellow and orange items too, your child learns to tell colours apart instead of guessing. You can extend the learning at home by asking your child to find purple clothes, toys or vegetables, and by talking about which objects are light purple and which are dark purple.

Frequently asked questions

What age is this purple colour game suitable for?

It works best for children aged three to four years, but younger toddlers can play with a little help and older preschoolers can enjoy it as quick revision. There is no reading involved, so any child who can tap a picture can join.

Which purple objects will my child see?

Your child will see friendly everyday pictures such as grapes, brinjal, a purple flower, a purple heart and a purple ball. The other choices show red, yellow, green, blue and orange objects, so children must look carefully before choosing.

Is this colour activity free to use?

Yes, the activity is completely free. You can play it as many times as you like on a phone, tablet, laptop or classroom screen without signing up, and teachers are welcome to use it during circle time or colour lessons.

How can I practise colours away from the screen?

Play a simple hunt at home. Ask your child to bring one purple thing, then one red thing, and name each object. Sorting toys, crayons or clothes by colour into small baskets gives the same learning with hands-on fun.
