How to Draw a Rainbow Step By Step – For Kids & Beginners

Here we are with another lesson on how to draw a rainbow for you. Drawing a rainbow is a very simple and easy task. Have you ever looked at the rainbow, what it looks like, what shape it has? here we have a simple way of knowing realistic rainbow drawing with very easy colouring and steps. A rainbow is a half circle with many colours in it. Rainbows are formed due to weather reasons when the light of the sun falls on the water droplet of rain rainbows appear on the opposite side of the sun. They are intangible thus the drawing should also look realistic as floating in the sky.

Rainbow colours are in a specific order, for which you can remember VIBGYOR from down to going upside. If this order gets disturbed while colouring it will be wrong in term of originality.
