Mixing Colors


This was a super simple activity that both kids participated in. The first step was to freeze the colored ice. We just added food coloring to a cup of water until the desired shade was achieved. Then the kids poured their water into ice cube tray. Allow time to freeze. While waiting on the water to freeze, the kids watched a movie, and I made up the plates. Add a color dot with magic marker for whatever color combination you'd like the kids to try. (i.e. - three red dots means three red cubes) Let the kids add the cubes, wait, and watch. The cubes will melt leaving you with a new color.
What other color experiments do you do with your kids. Please leave a comment.
