How effective. I can see this almost being an “I spy” activity too with all the wonderful collage pieces! :)
brilliant. i spy. i love it.
Comes just in time for my color challenged toddler. We’ll give this a try. Color bins really helped with Blue, Green, Red, Orange and Yellow. This will be a good way to introduce the next set of colors or just to reinforce his learning.
Beautiful! It’s also possible to do a similar activity outside where children collect petals and different colours in nature to create a natural colour wheel.
oh yeah! i did this myself this summer….must find those pictures.
though, in our drought land here, we’d barely have more than brown and grey…maybe a bit of green. soon, soon, soon the coolness will bring color i hope!
It looks like it was nice & messy too. How marvellous!
yeah, messy usually means a lot more fun.
: )
and man, i am excited to check out your blog! we’ve got two male teachers in the classroom this year. good stuff.
Beautiful! I love this idea for a color wheel!
thank you. : ) it was fun!
I love this and must, must, must try it soon!
this was a couple of years ago…i should do it again too.
we still have it hanging in our entryway, though… : )
I just wanted to thank you so much for your inspiration! When I saw this post, I had to try it. I’ve just written a post about our colorwheel, and gave a link and credit to you for your inspiration.

This has always been one of my favorite color activities! I think I will do it again with my new preschool class!

Thanks for linking to my watercolor recipe, and I just love this color wheel project! It might be a great way to use up all those craft odds and ends…..!

This is beautiful!! I soooo want to do this in my class! Oh, colors how we love you!
I LOVE this idea! It’s beautiful! I adore doing collages with my class – especially when I’m emphasizing just one color at a time. And my children loves picking through the items figuring out what everything is – or was! You have a lot of great ideas here – I’m going to have to steal a few! Great blog – your class does seem fun and engaging! Good times!
With all these great, great projects where do you find time to post them all! I can’t express how much fun your class seems. I would love to be there!
