Ice Cream Color Matching Game
A sweet printable file folder game for learning colours — match ice cream scoops to the correct cone by colour, and ice lollies to the stick showing the right colour name. Combines colour recognition with early word reading.
Our very first file folder game, and still a favourite. Think of it as your very own ice cream stall! Print, cut, assemble and play.
How to make & play
You will need: paper, a file folder, scissors, glue, and removable labels such as Post-it notes (optional).
1. Print out the template.
2. Lay the file folder open like a book and glue page 1 and page 2 inside.
3. Cut out the ice cream scoops and lollies on page 3 with scissors.
4. Cut out the pieces on page 4 to label and decorate the folder cover. Make the storage pocket as shown, or store the cut-out pieces safely in a bag or envelope.
How to play
Match the colour of each ice cream scoop with the matching colour inside the correct cone. Match the ice lollies with the stick showing the correct colour name — combining colour recognition with word reading.
Tip: cut the sticky part off a Post-it note and glue the non-sticky side to the back of each cut-out ice cream piece. Children can then stick and reposition the pieces over and over, making the game reusable. Stack them together like a pad for easy storage.
Try printing the scoops and lollies on heavier paper for extra durability.
