Since St. Patrick’s Day falls this week, I thought it would be a great time to have a rainbow/color theme! Here is what we will be doing.

Rainbow tissue paper craft – cut an arch shape out of white cardstock. Cut tissue paper squares in various colors and glue them to make a rainbow around the arch. Glue cotton balls or white pom poms to the bottom of each side of the arch to make clouds. If you don’t have the supplies, you could fingerpaint the rainbow and glue on the clouds once dry.
Making colors – Use a color wheel to talk about different colors and how mixing certain colors creates new colors. Then get some paint in primary colors to make secondary colors. Then use the secondary colors you made and mix with a primary color to make a tertiary color.
