Mouse Paint

Precious pictures and a great learning tool! Teach primary colors and expand on that concept to teach some secondary colors within an appealing story about some very curious mice. Kids are captivated by this book and it lends itself to discovery. Do an experiment with food color in water to concretely demonstrate the color changing aspects shown in the book. Remember to end your experiment by adding a bit of bleach to your color mixture to bring the water back to clear! An amazing teaching tool that is based on a darling story with fanciful, simple illustrations.

I love this adorable story. Teaches children the magic of mixing colors, while enjoying a great book. Pictures are fun and storyline is too!

This is a classic. My 3-year-old great nephew loves it!

I love how this book teaches about mixing two colors to come up with a new color. I also love how the mice hide from the cat and uses the cat's water dish to wash the paint off of their bodies.

I love this book! The illustrations are delightful, the concepts are the simple basics of mixing combinations of blue, yellow and red to make green, orange and purple ( primary and secondary colors). These busy little mice can lead to many fun art projects with your children as they play with the concepts introduced in this charming little book. Children love it and you will too.

I was expecting a smaller board book. Love that this is oversized.

I love, love, love this book. It is so cute and while it tells the story about the three mice, it demonstrates how mixing the primary colors together result in other colors. I highly recommend this book! Update: There is a bit of a mess up in the color on one of the pages. I have the board book so it may only be in this version, but when the mice get in the paint, they are supposed to be blue, red and yellow. The red mouse however is orange, but only on this one page. The rest of the book is fine as far as colors go and it is still one of my favorites for teaching colors.

Great way to teachcolors

My little boy loves this book and he calls out the colours that the mice make with their feet. Even I love it and love reading it to him. Great for teaching primary and secondary colours.

Un livre très sympa pour apprendre les couleurs. Il intéresse les enfants dès 18 mois. Les dessins sont très mignons et les phrases simples. Probablement une bonne introduction à l’anglais pour les enfants non anglophones.

Il Prodotto che ho ricevuto è davvero eccellente, per questa ragione reputo che abbia soddisfatto in pieno le mie aspettative!

This is one of my favourite stories to teach children about the primary colours and how to make secondary colours. The mice are excellent teachers.

Lo compré como paso previoal estidio de los colores primarios y secundarios en inglés con niños de 3 a 5 años. El formato es muy pequeño.
