Frozen Colour Mixing Paint

June 30, 2020 by admin Leave a Comment

If your children love to paint, they’ll really LOVE using frozen paint!

Frozen paint is great fun to use as once it starts to melt it flows smoothly over the paper.

We made these using primary colours so we could do some colour mixing at the same time.

You’ll need

Ice cube tray

Different colours of paint

Lolly sticks

Freezer

Instructions

Pour a thin layer of one colour of paint into your ice cube tray and place in the freezer until frozen.

Add a different colour over the top and place a lolly stick in the paint before putting it in the freezer until frozen again.

Add a third colour and freeze again!

Leave to melt a little before using to paint with!

It worked much better than I thought and was perfect for mixing colours.

What are primary colours?

Primary colours cannot be created by mixing other colours together.

Red, Yellow and Blue

Mixing primary colours together makes secondary colours.

Yellow + Blue = Green

Red + Yellow = Orange

Blue + Red = Purple
