Songs:
‘Rainbow Song’
Oh, I like red. It’s the color of an apple.
Orange. It’s the color of an orange.
Yellow. It’s a lemon and a wonderful sun, sun, sun!
Green. It’s the color of trees and lots of things that grow.
And then there’s blue for the sky –
And purple a color that’s fun, fun, fun!
And when we put those colors side by side –
Now, what do you think we’ve done?
We made a rainbow –
And it’s a really beautiful one, one, one!
