Basic Colour Wheel

The colour wheel is a great way to see how different colours are made. By mixing combinations of primary colours, we can create secondary colours!
  • Step 1Download and print the activity sheet provided. We recommend cover paper as it provides a great surface for painting.
  • Step 2Paint the primary colour sections in the centre of the circle as indicated. Don’t forget to paint the swatches at the bottom under the Primary Colours heading at the bottom of the page.
  • Step 3Paint the red, yellow and blue sections as indicated in the outer circle. Now it’s time to get mixing!
  • Step 4Mix combinations of the primary colours according to the colour wheel to make the secondary colours. Paint the green, purple and orange sections on the outer circle of the colour wheel. Paint the swatches under the Secondary Colours heading at the bottom of the page.
  • Step 5Allow to dry. Your Colour Wheel is now ready to display!
