Why Toddlers Love This Rainbow

A big rainbow with wide stripes stretches from one cloud to the other. Underneath sits a little barn with an X-braced door, a scalloped roof, and a weather vane. Up front, a spotted cow, a woolly sheep, and a round chicken grin with big, shiny eyes. Two little flowers and a mushroom grow in the grass – all drawn with thick lines and big spaces.

🖨️ Step by Step: How to Print It Best

Choose portrait
Letter or A4 in portrait, scaling set to “Fit to page” – the picture fits the sheet perfectly.

4
Color & display
Grab your crayons and go – then give the finished picture a spot on the fridge!

How a Rainbow Forms

A rainbow appears when sunlight shines through raindrops. The drops split the light into its colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. Red is always on the outside and violet on the inside. You can only see a rainbow when the sun is behind you and the rain is falling in front of you. On the farm, the animals enjoy fresh, juicy grass after a good rain.

What to Do with Your Finished Rainbow

Glue cotton balls onto the two clouds to make them extra fluffy. You can also dab the rainbow with finger paint, using a different finger for each stripe.
