There are so many parts of the Noah story that can be deeply explored with youngsters! Animals, water and floating, and the rainbow are just a few.
This week we have embarked on a journey to learn more about the rainbow and colors. As teachers of young children, we strive to take concepts such as primary and secondary colors, and present them in tangible, concrete ways.

| "Green!" Josie observed as blue and yellow ran together. |
The children were given spray bottles filled with red, yellow, and blue liquid watercolor. As they sprayed the paints onto coffee filters, they watched the colors run together to form new colors.

| Cassidy adds blue to her rainbow |
 |
| Bryna chooses yellow to start with |
 |
| Ziva watches the colors blend |
 |
| Perly squeezes the spray bottle |
Later in the day, we learned a song about the rainbow. It is sung to the tune of London Bridge:
Red, orange, yellow, green,
Shiny blue, purple too,
All the colors that we know
Hashem put in the rainbow!
