At BrainBunny Juniors Gurugram, we believe that early childhood is a period of boundless curiosity, creativity, and learning. Every day at our preschool is designed to nurture young minds, but certain days stand out for their special significance, fun, and learning opportunities. One such day is the much-awaited Yellow Day Celebration.
Yellow Day is a vibrant event where children are encouraged to explore the world of colors, engage in creative activities, and participate in playful learning experiences. More than just a day of dressing up, it’s a celebration that combines fun, social interaction, and educational development, perfectly aligned with the CURIO curriculum, which emphasizes holistic early childhood learning.
From yellow decorations that brighten the classrooms to hands-on activities that promote cognitive and motor skills, Yellow Day at BrainBunny Juniors Gurugram has become a hallmark event that both children and parents look forward to.
Why Yellow Day Matters?
The color yellow is universally associated with sunshine, happiness, energy, and optimism. In early childhood education, celebrating a color-themed day like Yellow Day provides more than aesthetic enjoyment—it serves multiple educational and developmental purposes:
Cognitive Development
Children learn to identify, name, and associate objects with colors, enhancing visual perception, memory, and vocabulary. On Yellow Day, they recognize everyday yellow items like bananas, school buses, lemons, or sunflowers, reinforcing cognitive connections.
Emotional Growth
Yellow evokes positive emotions and happiness, encouraging children to express joy freely. Events like Yellow Day help children develop self-confidence, emotional expression, and empathy, as they celebrate alongside peers in a supportive environment.
Social Skills
Group activities foster teamwork, collaboration, and communication skills. Whether working together in crafts, solving a treasure hunt, or participating in role-play, children learn essential social skills that are crucial for early childhood development.
Physical & Motor Skills
Activities like crafting, movement games, and treasure hunts develop fine and gross motor skills. Children practice coordination, dexterity, and spatial awareness while enjoying playful, guided learning experiences.
By integrating cognitive, social, emotional, and physical learning, Yellow Day exemplifies how fun and education can seamlessly coexist.
How We Celebrated Yellow Day at BrainBunny Juniors Gurugram?
The celebration at our Gurugram branch was carefully designed to blend joy, creativity, and learning. Every element of the day—from decorations to activities—was thoughtfully curated to engage children in meaningful experiences.
Dress & Ambience
The preschool transformed into a cheerful yellow wonderland. Children arrived wearing yellow attire, including t-shirts, dresses, socks, and hair accessories. Classrooms were decorated with yellow balloons, ribbons, streamers, and sun-themed décor, instantly creating a vibrant and inviting atmosphere.
The visual environment itself became a learning tool, allowing children to associate the color yellow with positivity and excitement. Teachers guided children in identifying yellow items around them, reinforcing color recognition and vocabulary in a fun and interactive manner.
Activities & Crafts
Yellow Treasure Hunt
Children participated in an exciting yellow treasure hunt. Hidden yellow objects were placed around classrooms and play areas, and children were given clues to find them.
This activity promoted:
- Observation and focus – spotting hidden items
- Problem-solving skills – following clues and completing challenges
- Teamwork and communication – collaborating with peers to find treasures
Craft Time: “My Yellow World”
The craft session encouraged children to create imaginative yellow-themed artwork using paper, crayons, glitter, and recycled materials. Some made suns, flowers, and school buses, while others designed unique yellow worlds, fostering creativity, imagination, and fine motor skills.
Teachers guided children to describe their creations, helping enhance language skills and self-expression. Parents often observed these artworks displayed around the classroom, reinforcing the pride and achievement children felt.
Story-Time & Role-Play
Teachers narrated a delightful story about a “little yellow bird” sharing sunshine and friendship with others. Children then engaged in role-play activities, acting out scenes from the story.
This encouraged:
- Language and memory development – recalling story events
- Social-emotional learning – understanding emotions and empathy
- Confidence and self-expression – performing in front of peers
Role-play transformed storytelling into an interactive learning experience, blending fun and education seamlessly.
Snacks & Healthy Eating
A special yellow-themed snack session was organized, featuring:
- Banana slices
- Yellow bell peppers

- Cupcakes with yellow icing
Children were encouraged to identify the yellow foods and discuss their nutritional benefits. This simple activity linked color recognition with practical learning, teaching children about healthy eating while reinforcing the day’s theme.
