Rainbow Learning Activities
Rainbows make me think of spring and I’m so looking forward to spring. At least, I can bring a rainbow indoors with one of these rainbow learning activities.
My daughter loves sensory bins so I still have a large box filled with colored rice for her. I’ve never colored sand before but after seeing this salt tray, I may have to give it a try.
The great thing about all of these rainbow activities is that they’re geared towards the kids and really fun to do! If you’re looking for some simple craft ideas that will have the kids loving to create on their own, this list of rainbow learning activities is perfect!
