Why can we see colors when we mix different paints?

👶 Short Answer (For Little Kids)

We can see colors because each paint has special colors that mix together!

🧠 Detailed Explanation (For Older Kids)

When we mix different paints, each color adds its own special light. Some colors absorb light, while others reflect it, and when they mix, the new color reflects a combination of all the light! That’s why mixing blue and yellow paint makes green—it's all about how light works with colors to create something new!
