Mouse Paint Color Mixing with Kindergarten!

To start out this exciting lesson, we read the super fun book, Mouse Paint by Ellen Stohl Walsh! After learning about color mixing, we set to work drawing and painting our own mice. Together, we used just red, yellow, and blue to create orange, green, and purple!

Here is my example:
