- Activity page taken directly from the book where you can choose your favourite Rainbow Blot to draw and colour in!
Don’t forget to take a look at The Rainbow Blots song while you are exploring these sheets?
As always – we will share with you the activities before we offer the download so you can see exactly what you are getting beforehand.
Rainbow colouring pages: Introducing The Rainbow Blots
Our first page is a little introduction to The Rainbow Blots characters; why don’t your children colour them all in as they were in the book, or get a little creative with the rainbow colours?
Having fun with The Rainbow Blots
This rainbow colouring page show The Rainbow Blots having a little bit of fun with some of the things that are rainbow coloured – can you children spot them, and tell you a little about them? Perhaps they can colour them in with the right colours too, and match them to the Rainbow Blots character?
Over the rainbow colouring sheet
This is the last of the rainbow colouring pages we have for you – and it shows a rainbow so your kids can practise understand the rainbow colours for real.
The Rainbow Blots Wordsearch 1
The first of our rainbow-themed wordsearches to help consolidate understanding of the rainbow colours with children.
The Rainbow Blots Wordsearch 2
This is the second sheet we have for the book to increase understanding and literacy around the colours of the rainbow. We hope you children like them both.
Make your own Rainbow Blots character
Our final activity from the book is a Make Your Own activity – with kids being invited to make their own Rainbow Blot and share it on the activity sheet. Why not encourage them to let their imaginations, and colours flow freely?
We really do hope that you like these activities that we have put together for you on The Rainbow Blots book – if you want to know a little bit more about it. Here is the author, Carlie, reading it aloud for her daughter:

I love the word searches, so good for developing word recognition as well as helping with spelling. The Over the rainbow colouring sheet looks like good fun as well
