Green Boy

Even in a "home-school" the children are unpredictable!
During one of today's "lessons", we were working on colors (primary/secondary colors, mixing colors and which make which). While talking about making green, using yellow and blue, I took out the finger-paint to show Jonathan how to mix two colors to create a new color.
Jonathan had a BLAST!




This really did begin innocently! He had an itch on his head while we were mixing colors and when he went to scratch it I said "Oh No! You have paint on your hands..." Jonathan said "I'm all sticky." and continued to rub it all around his head. I am sure that my hysterical laughter added to the excitement, and kept him painting away, rather than stopping...
