Children built upon ideas when discussing their paintings. “The floor is lava. There’s people on boats. The lava goes up and down.” “The people go on the lava. They need to go on an aeroplane. They need to go in the sky.” “Volcano erupts!” “Yellow lava, water rushes on lava.”

Lots of fun when mixing paints. “Blue and yellow, it will turn green!” “My hands are camouflaged.” “Scoop up the paint, it’s so slimy.” “I have a good idea. The paint makes a noise if I squeeze.” “Yes, it’s awesome. It’s epic!” “Red and blue to make it colourful purple.”
