Today I wanted to share a super simple activity to experiment with colour mixing that is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. Even black and white can be introduced to explore creating darker and lighter shades of colour. It also provides a wonderful foundation to teaching young children about the primary colours and mixing colours to create secondary colours. I must admit, it’s magical for kids and adults (although much better 1 on 1, I don’t think I would read it to a whole class of children as they would miss out on the magical experience of touching the book for themselves). They flip the book around and press pages together to discover captivating visual effects. Little fingers are invited to tap, press and rub colourful dots to create new colours. It is the most engaging and interactive, beautiful and educational book I’ve come across in a long time. ![]() I recently discovered the brilliance of the book Mix it Up by Herve Tullet when my (almost) 3 year old chose to borrow it from our local library. ![]()
