Primary Colors

Learn the three magic colors that make all other colors!

Beginner

1. What are primary colors?

Primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. You cannot make these by mixing other colors β€” they are the building blocks of all color!

2. Red

Red is warm and energetic. Think of apples, strawberries, and stop signs.

3. Blue

Blue is cool and calm. Think of the sky, the ocean, and blueberries.

4. Yellow

Yellow is bright and happy. Think of the sun, bananas, and smiling faces.

🎨 Try this activity

Draw three big circles. Color one red, one blue, and one yellow. Then try mixing two of them on paper!

Tip: Primary colors are your best friends when you start painting.
