We squirted a small amount of washing up liquid in the centre of the triangle and watched what happened. Then we added three drops of blue and three drops of yellow so that the colours formed a triangle. First we filled a shallow bowl with milk then dropped three drops of liquid red food colouring slightly away from the centre of the bowl. This is an interesting way to mix the three primary colours. Mixing the primary colours using food colouring Add white to make them darker and black to make them lighter then see what colour you get when you mix black and white. Mix the other primary colours together then tilt, rub and shake to mix the colours up. Then rub the blue and yellow dots to make a new colour. The Story: Starting with a grey dot you tap the book until more colours appear. It’s a great book to read but also provides an introduction to the three primary colours, the secondary colours that result from mixing them and shows how you can make colours lighter or darker. We love Hervé Tullet’s ‘ Press Here‘ and ‘Mix It Up’ is a lot of fun too.
