Color Mixing

For one fun activity this week we learned about mixing primary colors to create secondary colors.  We began by reading the book White Rabbit's Color Book.  It was about a curious white rabbit who wonders what will happen when she jumps into different color paint buckets.  She learns that red and yellow make orange, red and blue make purple, and blue and yellow make green.  At the end, she jumps into red, yellow, and blue and turns brown.  She decides she likes herself as brown.  Next, we mixed our own paint colors to create those secondary colors.
