Have a little fun in the kitchen with some food coloring.  Simple science, math and even art can be accomplished all around the family kitchen with everyday materials.  Our youngest two are learning how to create colors by mixing  primary colors together. 

step 1. Begin with a bowl of oatmeal.

Step 2. Go over the color wheel with your children and have them choose a color for the oatmeal.

Step 4.  Allow your child to stir the oatmeal (with as little help as possible).
