Kids make a color wheel

MAKE A COLOR WHEEL!

This is the third color activity we did during ‘C’ week.

We first watched an animated demonstration on youtube by Kaleena Persyn called The Color Wheel. This video was shared on youtube channel – Roomofplasticflowers.

These basic colors can be organized this way:

Primary Colors – RED, YELLOW, BLUE

Secondary Colors – ORANGE, GREEN, PURPLE

Warm Colors – RED, ORANGE, YELLOW

Cool Colors – BLUE, GREEN, PURPLE

Materials :

  1. Printable Color Wheel Color wheel activity for kids
  2. Paints in the primary colors (red, yellow, and blue)
  3. Paint Brush
  4. Cup for water / paper towel for blotting brush before changing colors
  5. Paper plate

 

Step 1 : Squirt a small amount of primary Color wheel activity for kidscolored paint on a paper plate, leaving enough room between colors to mix the colors to make secondary colors (green, purple, orange).

 

 

 

Step 2 : Choose a primary color to put in Color wheel activity for kidsany of the sections of the color wheel. Let’s say you begin with blue… Paint a section of wheel blue, and then fill in the appropriate boxes below the wheel before washing out brush. In this case, with the color blue, the boxes to be filled would be a ‘primary color’ and a ‘cool color.’

 

Step 3 : Hang up your beautiful colors to Color wheel activity for kidsdry!
