68500 Flying Colours
The colour centrifuge gives children a simple way of conjuring up expressive, dynamic works of
art, by turning the handle quickly or slowly, they can influence the development of the picture.
Paint is simply applied to the paper before or during the spinning process, and the centrifugal
force creates super patterns.
Assembly and preparation
Before starting, the table or work surface should be covered with newspaper and all the tools
and the colour centrifuge should be placed ready. The curved paper sheet of the right size can
now be fixed to the revolving plate with the magnet.
Teamwork is the most successful way of having fun with colours: One child can work the handle
while another concentrates on the painting process. Colour can be applied to the paper in many
different ways. Whether pens, brushes or pipettes are used to paint, drip or sprinkle: there are no
limits to creativity!
