“Mama, can we paint?” Is the question I hear least once a week.
My kids like to paint. We tried painting with all sort of things: from chalk, to shaving cream and egg yolk!
What I’ve noticed, is that if one of the following things happen, then our activity is a success:
1- It involves some degree of mess
2- It’s about learning a new technique
3- It’s an open ended activity and the kids can experiment with color mixing.
That’s why I liked these 25 Color Mixing Activities that mamashappyhive.com put together. So it was my pleasure to feature it here. I think we can all find some inspiration in this roundup!
