Coloured fire

Hello all! I am new to this site and am glad to have found it. I came across it whilst searching the web for any clues on how to change the colour of a flame. I would love to have green or blue flames on the ends of my fire toys and I remember (unfortunately not too well) an experiment in my chemistry class at school involving the use of certain chemical compounds in order to change the colour of a flame. Does anybody have any suggestions?
