In their own experiments, children discover the power of primary colors and playfully learn the basics of color and shape theory. Mixing colors becomes an exciting research process where questions arise, are tested, and reflected upon together. This not only sharpens their perception of color nuances but also promotes their motor skills and understanding of scientific connections through creative experimentation.

**When** Tuesday–Friday, starting 10 AM

**Dauer**
120 minutes

**Notes** Limited number of participants – maximum group size of 20 children.

In the shape lab, children can playfully explore various printing techniques. Here, the little ones experiment with simple materials and diverse shapes to create their own creative images. This fosters not only fine motor skills and concentration but also trains understanding of geometric and abstract forms. Playfully testing and combining shapes invites children to expand their imagination and develop their expressive abilities – an ideal space for first artistic and scientific experiences.
