Glitter Pot Rainbow Craft For Kids

Mini Glitter Rainbow Craft For Kids

When I was a little girl I was in the play The Wizard of Oz. It’s been over 28 years but I remember the songs perfectly. My favourite song from the show was somewhere over the rainbow.

Rainbows are beautiful and I love that a rainbow comes after the rain. I kind of relate that to myself. I have had some really tough times in life but the rainbow sure does appear in the end.

Today we have a fantastic and easy rainbow craft. It’s pretty simple and fun and one the kids will love.

This is a great activity for young children and a great way to teach the colours, get creative and have fun crafting. Enjoy.
