magical colors
Posted by lapazfarm on December 1st, 2006 filed in montessori, JBugThis simple activity kept JBug delightfully busy for quite some time today:

She loved discovering the new colors made by mixing different combinations of colored water. Look at that smile! She had just exclaimed,”Look! It turned green, Mommy!” I think she thought it was magic!
