Prep Time; 5 mins
You’ll Need; Selection of paints, tray, paper & paintbrushes

This is such an easy yet fun activity, especially for anyone who loves experimenting with colour.

We took advantage of the lovely weather and got our tuff tray out in the garden for this activity, but you could do it indoors using paper or a smaller tray.

To get started, I laid out a few sheets of paper, pencil and paintbrush for each person taking part. Then set out the bottles of paint.

One by one, everyone chose their first colour before picking another to mix it with. We started off using the paint brush to blend the colours together and then as the time went on we also mixed some of them with our fingers!

As each new colour was created, we painted a little sample onto the paper and gave it a fun new name.

Not ever colour turned out the nicest but they often ended up being the funniest to name!

If you would like a little guide for when mixing colours, Here is a handy little one to look at!

Enjoy mixing colours and coming up with new creations!
