Colourful science in Nursery

We have been learning about colour in Nursery this half term and have been experimenting a lot with mixing colours and using different art materials such as brusho and paint in different ways.
We have also explored colour through some science activities learning that water can "walk" up a paper towel, that flowers drink water (proven by the flowers changing colour depending on the colour of the water they were in), that if we plant a seed in soil and give it water and light it should grow (we planted rainbow chard), and that we can make a rainbow using sweets!
The children have really enjoyed the new experiences telling us what they have noticed and getting excited by the miraculous science we have observed together.
