Ideas for Decorating This Rainbow Template

Colouring or painting as the most easy way to decorate your rainbow template just grab your crayons or pens and colour it in. Just colouring it is a good way to help learn the colours of the rainbow and sometimes the easiest ideas are the ones you’ll enjoy most

Mosaic Fancy something a little bit more than colouring? Cut out small squares or rectangles of coloured paper and glue them on to make your rainbow. This can be a good way to practice scissor skills too.

Stickers Grab some coloured dot stickers and use them to decorate. You could look for different stickers too such as star shapes or gems

Nature Rainbow Cover your rainbow template in double sided sellotape and then hunt around your garden or backyard for flowers, leaves and grasses of each colour to fill in your rainbow.

Cotton Buds Dip a cotton bud (Q-Tip) in coloured paint and use this to decorate your rainbow.

Lego and Finger painting check out our post of rainbow crafts for kids to see these three craft ideas in action.
