How old are the older ones?
You could do colour mixing - which colour paints mixed together will make green, how do you make it a darker or lighter shade - then paint some pictures
You could collage all things green cutting pictures from magazines etc
Buy some white carnations put green food colouring in the water and watch what happens - need a bit of patience for this one
Grow some cress, food taste green vegetables and/or fruit or do painting with them etc
