We had so much fun with Colors, Cats, Caterpillars, & Cooking this week! We love to sign "C" while making its sound.

- What will happen to White Carnations when we put them into different colored water? It was fun to mix the 3 Primary and 3 Secondary colors to make a rainbow in our window sill. We also kept one glass with clear water so the kiddos could compare the other carnations to the original white color. We also smelled the flowers before and after their color changes to see if the colors would change their smells.
- We cut up old crayons and melted them to make new colorful crayons! It was fun to design our own and magical to see how they went from hard bits to melted swirls and then back to hard, but this time it was one solid piece.
- We baked a Cake together. We mixed up a white cake mix. I gave each child a small bowl filled with some of the white batter. Each child chose which color they wanted to add to his/her bowl. It was fun for me to watch them mix the colors. I then dumped each bowl into a 9x13 and baked it. Some predicted that the colors wouldn't stay, while others thought the colors would mix into one another. We had fun seeing the final product and eating some too!
