Kindergarten scientists are learning about the Scientific Method.

I dropped red, yellow, and blue food coloring into pie plates filled with whole milk, and the colors didn’t move when my scientists placed a Q-tip in the center of the colors. Then, they dipped another Q-tip into dishwashing soap, placed it between the colors in the pan, and watched the colors explode! Why did that happen? How did we make green, purple, and orange?

When we cleaned up, we discovered that primary colors mixed together make brown.
