Rainbows

I made up this busy book page a while ago now for Stella who loves rainbows but wasn't too good at naming any colours except blue. I think it's my favourite page so far- I love watching her move each bead across after she's put each colour down, and she has remarkably improved her colour recognition so I put it all down to this of course ;) We were actually thinking she was colour blind for a while there! I used this colouring in page for the template but had to add another band of colour to do the ROY G BIV rainbow. 
Went a bit wonky with my sewing- should have used pins....
And here are a few more rainbow things if you have a rainbow fan in your house too...

Love your busy book page :-) I LOVE rainbows and have a Zora's rainbow here at home. I don't let the baby play with it though ;-) It's Mummy's!

Love this busy book - Am thinking this would work well for a felt board too!

That is great idea for the busy book.... also, we thought a couple of our boys were colour blind too, must have just been a age thing, because they are fine now :)

love this page..and the other pages of your quiet book! You know its funny...my 2 1/2 yr old daughter can recognize green correctly but she looks at a red colored object too and says green! I was almost beginning to think she's colorblind when she picked up a red colored duplo block and said 'red' correctly...now Ive realised that she apparently says the wrong color deliberately just to annoy me : )
