Rainbows throughout our Room

Our room is filled with colours - rainbow colours.  Let me show you a few.

Rainbow jars with a carnation experiment.

Rainbow ribbon rings that we use to sing our song "I Can Sing a Rainbow" or just play with them.

At the light table, rainbow arcs, coloured lenses, tubes with coloured filter paper on one end to shine a flashlight through.

Sensory table with rainbow pasta, leprechaun hats and pipe cleaners.

These little people each have their own rainbow pad (upside down cd).  The cd also makes a great spinner.

At the art table we used eye droppers and spray bottles with food colouring to make rainbows.

This little guy is trying to figure out how to fill the eye dropper with the spray bottle.

Rainbow Sponge Painting

This week we are talking about the weather and especially rainbows.
 
Today at the art table we painted rainbows using a sponge.

 Paint coloured stripes of the rainbow on to your sponge.

Then press it on to your paper.

And swipe it across the paper.

Some swipes didn't go in an arc.

Some painted on the skinny edge of the sponge.

Which left a much smaller rainbow.

But they all turned out beautiful.
