Colorful fun!

Today we had fun exploring the magical world of colors! 

This activity was a huge hit . . . 

Magic Handprints

Supplies:
Blue, red, yellow WASHABLE paint; Large paper and LOTS AND LOTS of soapy water!

Directions:
Have each child dip one hand in red paint and make a print on his paper. Then have him hold that hand HIGH in the air while he makes a yellow handprint with the other hand. Now, they rub the two hands together while saying, "ABRACADABRA" and then make a "magic" print with the new orange color.  For added fun, repeat to make purple and green prints!  
(Idea adapted from the Aug/Sept 2009 issue of The Mailbox magazine)

And with that we'll sign off with a ROAR!
