Check out the Color Wheel activities!
There are a few things that you will need
for this activity:
- food coloring (red, yellow, and blue)
- paper towels
- a dropper (we used an old medicine
dropper)
- a cup for water
- 3 containers/cups for food coloring
- toothpicks
- Color Wheel printables
First, dilute the food coloring a bit.
Place a drop of food coloring onto the
corresponding dot on the laminated
Color Wheel printable.
Next, use the toothpick to mix the
colors in each circle.
Once all the circles of color are mixed
together, place a paper towel over the
paper.
Finally, lift up your color wheel and
discuss how each color was made!
