Great for color mixing!! The green and purple turn out beautifully!ġ. We have rarely used these shapes before, but now I’m pretty sure we will use them all the time! The boys picked some toys that were not see-through at all, and quickly learned what kinds of materials are fun on the table! I had some manipulatives that were clear or translucent, so I got them all together. We took our light table into a dark room and just investigated it. I don’t want to risk them getting too hot.
