Rainbow streamers

Here's an easy activity that we did with Ryan recently. I cut some streamers from coloured crepe paper and I also cut a hole in a paper plate. Ryan stuck the streamers on the rim of the plate with glue and it was done!


Ryan had lots of fun swirling the streamers around and running through them! The crepe paper makes a gentle swooshing sound which adds to the fun.



This activity is great for fine motor skills as well as talking about colours. My intention was to talk about the seven colours of the rainbow with this activity, but you can choose any colours that you like of course.
