Mixing Colours

The children mixed blue and

yellow paint to print green

handprints for our Rainbow on

the colour display board.

There was lots of exploring and experimenting with mixing the colours and using the different brushes and rollers to create different patterns. I think there was more paint on the children than the paper!

For snack we had cereal we practised

using spoons. The children did

very well!

We were all fascinated by the

skittle experiment. We watched the colours

run in the water and make a colourful wheel!

The children enjoyed baking some leaf biscuits. The children then mixed yellow and blue food colouring into some icing to make the green icing to decorate the leaves. They looked delicious!

We needed purple handprints

for the rainbow so the children mixed

red and blue paint together on their

hands to print the purple handprints.
