A little plan for play
Open interactive activity →Add to play journal →What you need
Paper and large child-appropriate crayons.
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Let's make it happen
- Draw raindrops and a sun on your paper.
- Add a rainbow with the colors your child chooses.
- Explain that sunlight and water droplets can make a rainbow, and invite your child to tell the picture's story.
Look at a drawing or a window view without ever looking directly at the sun.
