Hi,

Thanks Matilda for taking this one. It will complete very well the other
activities to learn colors.

But take care, it is not as easy as it seems. The algorithm to emulate
the color melting are very complex and there are different model to pick
(additive, subtractive). I suggest to teach with the subtractive which
is more natural for painting.
