Nature Colour Find

We sort of cheated with this activity, when we hit the garden jackpot at the park!

Jackpot!

O loves flowers.
Understatement.
O tries to make us stop the car to pick fields of dandelions;) Wishes, not weeds.
So she was naturally led to the groomed garden to make the colour matches in her deck.

 Orange

This project was easy-peasy to prep, since Daddy gave us an old deck of colour cards, already pinned together. All I had to do was hole-punch  the cards so we could closely examine how colours are invented, courtesy of nature.

O even took note of shade.
When one shade was too dark or light, O flipped through for the closest match.

 Too dark

Just right!

We went on to look at less 'colourful' bits, like gray stones and brown bark, but really the flowers stole the show.
