Materials: Crepe Paper (red, yellow, blue, or whichever colors you want. 1 of each), clear plastic cups filled with waterÂ
Cut out squares of red, yellow, and blue crepe paper. Set out 3 clear plastic cups filled with water. Ask the children to guess what will happen when you put a square of red crepe paper in one of the cups. Put paper in and have the children watch as the dye from the paper turns the water red. Repeat with the yellow and blue pieces. Extension: Let children experiment with their own cups of water and paper. Chart what they did.
