Rainbow Formation Paper Plate Craft

Here comes a rainbow!

Teach kids how rainbows are formed by making this fun and interactive paper plate craft.

Rainbows are such fascinating phenomenon for kids and adults. They are formed when sunlight hits water droplets resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky.

They paint the sky with the seven beautiful colors forming a huge arc in the sky. It is common to see rainbows whenever there is water in the air and plenty of sunlight - like for example around waterfalls or out in the open when it is rainy & sunny together.

Holi Bonfire Card

Holi is a popular festival in India. It celebrates the end of the winter season and the arrival of spring.

Holika Dahan (Bonfire) is an important ritual associated with the Holi festival. Holika Dahan or the lighting of the bonfire takes place on the eve of Holi. People gather and perform religious rituals in front of the bonfire.

According to Hindu mythology, Holi celebrates the killing of Holika (sister of the demon king Hiranyakashipu) by god Vishnu in order to save his devotee Prahlad. And, Holi gets its name from Holika.

To educate my daughter about this ritual, we made this cute bonfire craft for kids.

Colorful Handprint Holi Card

The Indian festival of colors, Holi, is just around the corner. This year, Holi, will be on 9th March, 2020.

On this day, people of all ages come together to put beautiful colors on each other using natural or artificial powders and paints. Kids fill up water balloons and pichkari (water syringes) to splash their friends and sometimes even strangers!

Adults usually play with colors in the morning and then spend the afternoon and evening with friends and family over lunch and oral, board or card games. It is a time of fun and enjoyment for everyone. Anyone who has played Holi will usually have fond memories of it lasting years.

To commemorate this year's Holi festival, we decided to make a super easy yet colorful handprint Holi card.
