Have you ever looked up at the sky after a rainstorm and seen all the colors of the world put together in a beautiful arc? That's called a rainbow! A rainbow is like a giant, colorful smile that nature shows us when the sun comes out after it has been crying rain.

A rainbow is made when the sun shines its light through the raindrops that are left in the sky. The raindrops act like tiny prisms, which are just fancy words for things that split light up into all its colors.

Have you ever played with a magnifying glass that makes the sun's light into pretty colors on the ground? That's kind of what the raindrops do, but with big colors in the sky!

The colors you see in a rainbow are the same colors you find in a box of crayons: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Those colors are called the spectrum of light, and they are so special that scientists even have a fancy name for them: ROYGBIV!

Now, here's the really cool part: you can only see a rainbow if the sun is behind you and the rain is in front of you. It's like a secret message from the sky that says, "Hey, look up and see the beauty I can create!"

Remember, it's a magical sign that the sun and the rain are playing together and making something beautiful just for you to see. If you love rainbows, let's follow the tutorial to learn how to draw a simple yet beautiful rainbow!
