As promised: Plant-Dye painting activity!
I made the Dyes by chopping up Beets (for the magenta/ pink), Cabbage (for the Blue/grey), and Onion skins and Turmeric root (for the yellow/gold), and Simmering them in pots of water for 48 hours.
Done.
How awesome is that?
My students also LOVED it— The paints/dyes also smelled like food!
