while true do 
	for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace:WaitForChild('stage1').stagetest:GetChildren()) do

		if v:IsA('Part') then 

			wait(math.random(1,5))

			v.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Lime green")


			wait(math.random(1,5))
			v.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")


		end
	end

You're super close , all you need to do is change where your wait is. Right now you're changing every individual part and waiting 1 to 5 seconds. If you put the wait right before you end the while loop and add one more for loop to change the color you will change every part at what looks like the same time. Your new script would look like this:

while true do 
    for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace:WaitForChild('stage1').stagetest:GetChildren()) do

        if v:IsA('Part') then 

            v.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Lime green")

        end
    wait(math.random(1,5))
    for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace:WaitForChild('stage1').stagetest:GetChildren()) do
        if v:IsA("Part") then
            v.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
        end
    end

    wait(math.random(1,5))
end
