Vito is 34 months old.
After exploring colour shades and tints, we moved on to learning secondary colours. We have a few books on colours but this book Colours My First Discovery Book got Vito hooked. It’s the only book he ever cared about when were discussing colours. I highly recommend this book for kids ages 1.5 years and older. My first attempt of showing him the blue and yellow makes green was using tempera paints, but it was short lived. His attention span was about 5 minutes and after that he wasn’t interested anymore. So I went back to the one activity that he loves: colour mixing using water.This activity is actually called The Walking Water Experiment and you might have seen this a lot of times in other homeschooler blogs or in Pinterest. I was hesitant to do this activity because of the water bottles that I needed to prepare. I don’t have enough glass bottles at home (and storage!) so I purchased a few of these tiny craft bottles from a local shop (they’re made of glass) for this purpose and I realized that they’re quite a gem! I can use them for smelling activities as well as placing specimens from nature finds. Anyway, going back, you can find similar materials in Amazon, though I’m not sure they have glasses.

How Much Do I Need?
This 25 gram bag Green Purple Colorshift Paint Pigment Flip Paint (aka Ocean Green to Purple) powder is a great pigment for creating your very own tinted clears in paint or powder-coating applications. Creates a mysterious finish that goes on green at first, and with more coats will change to purple at different angles and in different lighting conditions. Always apply over a dark or black base.
This is guaranteed to mix well with any clear paints or tinted candy paints, and has a temperature threshold of about 800 degrees fahrenheit. Pigment is a very fine powder and will spray well through airbrushes, powder guns, and HVLP paint guns. It is very light, so it stays well mixed in paint without settling too fast in your gun, and can make great tinted clears for light to heavy effects (it’s your choice). One 25 gram bag treats from 1 to 2 quarts of clear. Our green purple flip paint is actually re-sold by Ebay sellers (who mix it with clear base) for $300.00 a gallon! Save hundreds on a chameleon flip automotive paint job!
This is a FLIP pigment, which flips two colors, but can take 4-6 coats to get full color change. This is not considered to be a True Chameleon.
Any of our 4759 4779 series Chameleon Pearl pigments can be considered to be Ghost Chameleon Pearls®. Other people may call them Alien Pearls, but those are names, and we know what is in a name. We have had Chameleon Pearls ® in stock since 2008, and our competitors can’t touch us on prices. We intend to keep our prices the lowest on the market and will beat any other company’s retail prices. If you have additional questions, please check out our FAQ page on Chameleons or Contact us! We are here to help in any way that we can. There is a reason that we are called The Original.
Not only are all of our flip pigments completely compatible with liquid wrap or other coatings, we were the first to supply the coatings companies with pigments. If you have any reservations about whether our products work in any other coatings, you should know that we were the pioneers who introduced Pearls to the world.

The set-up is very simple. Just mix water with blue, red and yellow food colouring or you can purchase liquid water colour right away but these are not available here in Ireland. Leave 3 bottles empty and arrange them as seen on the picture below. Cut out strips of kitchen towels, these will be the medium in which the water will “walk”. Place one end in any of the coloured bottle, and the other end in the bottle next to it. 
Then, observe! In just a few seconds/minutes, the water will “walk”. 
The top view of the water “walking” through the kitchen towel. As you can see, the towels in red-yellow-blue were instantly moving, but the red-blue were stalled. This kept me wondering what was the factor that kept the movement of the water between these colours slow? Any idea? 
And they started to drip and mix colours! They were a sight to behold! The kids were so amazed. 
Vito started identifying the new colours formed! He’s like “look Mom, there’s green!”. He wouldn’t be like this if we were using paints, but with water play, he’s all into it. 
We kept this for the entire afternoon and he asked if we could play “colours” again, which was great. And now, the cleanup wasn’t that bad either. Since the bottles were small, they’re so easy to tidy up afterwards. The activity was a great success! Why don’t you try it too!
