What is color for kids?

Published in Color for kids 1 min read

Color is what you see when light shines off an object. Think of it like this: Imagine a rainbow. It's made up of all the colors we can see! When sunlight hits an object, some of the light gets absorbed, and some of the light gets reflected back to your eyes. The light that gets reflected is the color you see! For example, a red apple absorbs all the colors in sunlight except for red, which is reflected back to your eyes.

Here are some fun facts about color:

  • White objects reflect all the colors of light. That's why they look so bright!
  • Black objects absorb all the colors of light. That's why they look so dark!
  • Mixing different colors of light can create new colors. For example, mixing red and green light makes yellow light!
  • Color can make us feel different emotions. For example, blue can make us feel calm, while red can make us feel excited.

Color is a fascinating part of our world. It's everywhere we look, and it helps us understand and interact with the world around us!
