I, too, like to vary my color wheel projects, from 2D to 3D. The most
"visual" fun we've had is when we did Chinese take-out food boxes. I
took one apart, made a pattern, and everyone make one. They then did
their "color wheel" designs on the outside, we folded them up, added the
handles and "voila".....and when they were all displayed, the whole
school wondered "why are Chinese take out food boxes...so.... WHITE
anyway?
