I wonder how many of you have tried out those little tester pots of paint at home and spent ages comparing different shades? These children had great fun recently, mixing paint and experimenting with colours to paint outdoors. As with most art at this stage, it was the process of experimentation, rather than the end result of lots of wood painted in various colours, that was the most creative and exciting part of the activity. They mixed, measured, poured and did lots of talking about their findings as part of the process. Great teamwork boys and girls!
