Spring is almost here so I have started taking out my rainbow-themed activities and resources. I enjoy incorporating fun seasonal and holiday themes, literacy-based lessons, music, and videos where we can target our goals as a group and walk away learning something new and feeling successful! The theme of rainbows provides engaging crafts, recipes, and science experiments that can be integrated into your lesson plans and therapy sessions. I have included a few of my favorites in the lists below.
I have linked books, songs, videos, games, and freebies with a rainbow theme in case you are interested in expanding your resources. For full disclosure, as an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases for the books listed below. Other links, to freebies, songs, and videos are not affiliated links.
