Colour Mixing Butterflies

We did an awesome colour mixing activity today, here is how it turned out! The students coloured in the background and while they were colouring I pulled groups to paint the butterflies.

 We put a dab of two colours of paint, one on each wing, folded it together and then rubbed, When you open it the colours have mixed. 
Here are all of the butterflies drying. Aren't they beautiful!!

You can purchase the activity, as well as the SMART board lesson that goes with it, on my Teachers Pay Teachers site.
