Rainbow Cloud & Rainy Day camping Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Plink. Plonk. Drip-drop. Rain started to fall. A big, grey cloud hung right over the campsite. "Oh no," said a little hedgehog, "a grumpy cloud is going to ruin our fun."

The cloud rumbled a little. It did sound grumpy. But then, a little bird flew right up to the cloud and began to sing.

Unexpected Twist: The cloud wasn't grumpy, it was just full and heavy! The raindrops were its tears of relief. After its good cry, the sun peeked out and painted a beautiful rainbow right across the happy cloud's face.

Interactive Element: "Let’s make rain sounds. Tap your fingers lightly on the floor. Plink, plonk, drip-drop."

Life Lesson: Sometimes, a good cry is all you need to feel better.
