- Color the rainbow behind him one band at a time, and finish with the rolling water and the rocks at the lower right.

Take it further
Cut a dove out of white paper and glue a green paper leaf to its beak. Then one child plays Noah at the window and another flies in as the dove, acting out this scene from Genesis 8.

- The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
