The children’s book, The Best Colors introduces how colors affect our emotions. As an art book for kids, while doing art activities, it’s fun for teachers and parents to ask questions about how colors make us feel.
RED, a primary color, is a real ham that likes to show off. Always exciting, full of love, yet, hot tempered. A real fitness nut, Red loves to brag about being strong and powerful. An emotional, physical, bold, loud, energetic, intense color (in sales, a fighter, a mogul), Red demands attention.
Key words: Energetic, Loud, Fast tempo
YELLOW, is a primary color that can’t sit still with all its glowing energy and vitality. Full of fun ideas and brighter than bright. Yellow wants to be everywhere, doing everything, all of the time. Intellectual, cautious, high-pitched, wise, all-knowing, confident, full of bounce, flows like electricity and can be as striking as lightening.
Key words: High-pitched, Electrifying, Varied tempos
BLUE, a primary color is the “coolist” of the cools, who yearns to sing the “blues” and to wear denims and cowboy boots someday. Filling in the sky and oceans each morning, Blue has an eye for knowing everything going on around it. You can count on Blue to be spiritual, calm, quiet, relaxed and comfortable in all situations. Serene and peaceful at best and can be windy and stormy, as well.
Key words: Dreamy, Introverted, Slow tempo
ORANGE, a secondary color (made from mixing yellow and red) shares many of the characteristics of its parents with a mind of its own. Orange is a warm, quirky, fun-loving techie type that is a huge sports fan and explorer. It can be just as easily found surfing the waves as surfing the Internet. Blends emotion and brains and often shows up as an inventor, scientist or artist.
Key words: Wild, Highly excitable, Quick tempo
GREEN, a secondary color (made from mixing blue and yellow) is environmentally concerned, health-minded and caring. An in control and effective activist trying to make the world a better place, Green is just as comfortable tending to the garden as protesting in a picket line. With a strong blend of intellect and spirit, Green often shows up as an organic farmer, gardener, landscape designer or ecologist.
Key words: Safe, Earthy, Medium tempo
PURPLE, a secondary color (made from mixing blue and red) is a passionate, unique creative genius that can be found experimenting in both studios and labs, with paints or test tubes, inventing new colors, shapes and forms. A good blend of emotion and spirit, Purple is regal and confident and loves playing to an audience. An out of the box thinker, Purple is zany but not nutty and brings fun and follow-through to all its endeavors.
Key words: Different, Fun loving, Even tempo
