So today is Flag Day and this is a fun activity to do with your kids. We get out the construction paper and make a "negative image" of the American Flag. Oh, that sentence may get the wrong kind of traffic on my blog, but I mean opposite color. This is a science activity about light and color. Stare at the image below for a few minutes, then look down at the white space below.
Why did you see a red, white and blue American flag? Those colors are the
negative of the above black, blue and yellow image. The negative is what is left
after you stop staring at the image. If you were to take the above image and
open it in MS Photo Editor and select negative from the effects menu you would
have a nice bright American flag.
