Pumpkin Color Mixing Activity

Help children discover how red and yellow mix together to make orange with this pumpkin color-mixing activity!

Children will begin by coloring or painting the first circle yellow and the second circle red. They can then practice carefully mixing the two colors along the strips, starting with yellow and slowly adding red. Once they have created their new orange shade, they’ll use it to color the pumpkin.

This simple art and science activity gives children the chance to experiment with color, compare different shades of orange and see firsthand what happens when two primary colors are combined.
