Color Mixing Obstacle Course (Art is all around us!)

We were so happy to be back. We missed each other during the Clubhouse break.

Since it was a gorgeous, sunny day today, we went outside and engaged in one of our favorite activities, namely going through an obstacle course with a friend. Since this time around the Clubhouse theme is "Art is all around us," we experimented with color mixing and talked about the color wheel:

  
Obstacle Course “Color Mixing”: We chose a partner and then carried a tray with two yogurt cups that we first filled with blue (red) diluted paint through an obstacle course. At the end of the course, we poured the cups into a bottle that was filled half way with yellow diluted paint and watched the color change. We observed how blue and yellow turned into green and red and yellow into orange.

Collaborative Art Project “Contact Paper Collage”: Collages are very well suited for collaborative art projects. We all worked together and covered a sheet of contact paper with different art materials such as scrap papers, glitter and glitter glue.
