Paint bags are a great way for children to learn about colour mixing and really are as the name suggests... Paint in bags!
Squeeze some liquid paint into a freezer bag, 2 colours, one each side for colour mixing or even just one colour paint. Seal the bag up well. Again I use tape across the top of the bag as an extra precaution.
Tape the bag to the window and get squishing! A quick and easy activity and perfect for those days when you really dont want the mess!
Encourage lots of chat about the colours and what happens when the colour mix together. Again this can be extended for older children into mark making, early writing skills and numbers.
