Vassily Kandinsky was born on December 16, 1866, in Moscow. Although originally trained in law and economics, his true love was art, and he changed fields and pursued his dream. Kandinsky was an Impressionist artist, and was credited with creating one of the first solely abstract works of art. Although Kandinsky’s Concentric Circles may well be one of his most recognizable pieces of art, it wasn’t a painting in the true sense of the word. He used this to study how colors interacted with one another and to explore the emotions that colors generated.

Kandinsky’s painting is a wonderful way to introduce children to the world of color. Not only can you discuss the color wheel, you can talk about the combination of colors and how different colors and combination of colors makes you feel. Below is a list of color terms. Depending on the age of your child, introduce them to as many of these terms as they seem ready to process. When done, talk about which color combinations they like the best. Ask questions like “Which block makes you feel happy, sad, angry, excited, etc.?” or “Which colors feel warm or cool?”<\/p>\n
