We read this sweet little color mixing book called “Mouse Paint” by Ellen Stoll Walsh. It was a great lead in to a color mixing stART project!

What’s stART? Simply put: A Story + Art = A Great stART!

First we read the story, its super cute, and easy to read as well.

Next we got our colors ready and since I have 3 kids doing this, each one mixed a color combo:

Next we painted, starting with the primary colored mice, then the secondary colored mice in between.
