Rainbow Color Play

Try a few colors
Test two or three colors on scrap paper, then choose the sun-and-clouds rainbow. Use any colors you enjoy; the arcs are not a seven-color template.
Color a garden and tell a story
Choose colors for the flowers in the garden page. On the bridge page, imagine what the two bears say when they meet.
Choose what comes next
Try the balloon sky or waterfall if you would like another scene. You can leave a page for later or change the order in your print list.
Another idea
Give two rainbow scenes different moods with your color choices. For a separate craft, follow the paper-puppet guide; the bear-bridge scene is a coloring page, not a ready-cut puppet template.
