We have been learning about colors and for our Bible time we have been learning about Noah. So, this rainbow sun catcher craft was perfect!  
To make this you will need:

-a coffee filter
-water based markers
-cotton balls
-glue
-paint brush

This is what you do: Flatten the filter and cut it in half so that you have a half circle. Now, cut the half circle so that it is shaped like a rainbow. Next, use the water based markers to color a rainbow on the the filter. Next, dilute the glue a bit and use a paint brush to brush the glue over the rainbow. Allow to dry. Once dry, add cotton balls and hang your rainbow sun catcher in a window! (Note: We let ours dry on wax paper. We had to peel the rainbow off the wax paper, but there was a cool rainbow design left behind on the wax paper. Our rainbow turned out fine. The book suggests using a styrofoam tray.)

We got this super cute idea from Gifts To Make/For Grownups.
