Help your kids remember the words to the popular nursery rhyme with our I Can Sing a Rainbow lyrics. This free printable is a great visual aid that will help kids learn colour names in a fun and engaging way. It’s perfect for displaying at home, at daycare or in the classroom.
I recently started to teach my toddler colours. Singing I Can Sing a Rainbow was one of the first things that came to mind.
But I realised singing the song on its own wasn’t the best way to help him associate the words with the actual colours. So I made an I Can Sing a Rainbow Printable to help him point to the colours as we sing.
I wanted to share it because I know it’ll help your kids learn their colours too!
