Amazing Facts About Rainbows – Fun Learning for Kids
Rainbow fact for kids: A rainbow appears when sunlight passes through tiny raindrops, bends, and splits into many colors in the sky. You usually see it when the Sun is behind you and rain or mist is in front of you. Most rainbows show seven colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet), and sometimes you can even spot a double rainbow. A rainbow is not a real object you can touch—it is an optical effect that changes with your viewing angle, so it “moves” as you move. You can also make mini rainbows in sprinklers, waterfalls, and fountains, and a rare night rainbow is called a moonbow.
