Today Izzy and I did a really fun activity to talk about color mixing. We made three different batches of soap foam... one in each of the primary colors. Then we divided our soap foam among three different containers so that when mixed, they would create one of the secondary colors like this... Soap foam is a new concept to us but it was so much fun and so easy to make! All you need is 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons dish soap, some food coloring and a blender. You can find the exact recipe we used here. When you blend all of the ingredients together it makes a nice frothy colorful foam that is awesome to play with. And the primary colors look great when mixed to make secondary colors. Izzy particularly loved all of the bubbles in the foam made by the soap. I loved the fact that this activity practically cleans itself. I mean soap and water... what could be much cleaner?
