Separate water soluble ink into its color components and find that black is actually made of an array of colored pigments! This is a clever spin on the classic chromatography experiment. Use the book, Purple, Green, and Yellow, by Robert N. Munsch and this activity to teach primary and secondary colors to your primary learners.
