Chinese Color Words Happy Easter
Spring is a fun time to learn or review the Chinese color words! Have you dyed some Easter eggs? How about an Easter egg hunt? Do you know all the colors of the jelly beans? How about making colorful cupcakes or cake pops? Have a fun and sweet time learning and playing with all the color words.
When we dye Easter eggs, we can say the names of each color. What colors do you see in the picture below? What color is it? = shén me yán sè? 什麼顏色?
White = Bái sè 白色; Blue = Lán sè 藍色; Red = Hóng sè 紅色;
Yellow = Huáng sè 黃色; Green = Lǜ sè 綠色; Orange = Jú sè 橘色 – you will also hear people say “Chéng sé 橙色.”
Do you like to eat oranges? Orange – Jú zi 橘子. How about the color orange? Orange color – Jú sè 橘色. That is easy to remember, isn’t it. You will also hear some people say Chéng zi 橙子 for the orange you eat, and Chéng sè 橙色 for the color orange.
What other fun words you need to know for Easter? Let’s take a look!

I love that you used easter eggs for this. I wish I would’ve thought of doing that when we were coloring eggs. Maybe I’ll do that with all the left over jelly beans!
That is always a fun activity for children. You know what we do when we are drying the eggs…Jelly Beans Hunt with Color Sorting! It is definitely a treat for the kids! Thank you for visiting! Let’s always keep learning fun! ~Miss Panda
