Color Theory for Children

This is a basic lesson to introduce children (ages 4-6) to color theory. Have them draw the candy and lollypops first, then talk about the primary/secondary colors and have them paint their drawing as the example. You may have to "cheat" a little with the purple by adding a little white (depending on the type of paint you use). You can do each set at a time (2 lollypops and a candy) or all 3 together. You can start with a story about a candy factory and by mixing the ingredients used in 2 of the lollypops then you get the candy! Make it fun!
