Light Project #13 from the Science Library Vol. I

How To Make A Rainbow

P1020412

-Place a large piece of white paper on the floor in front of a sunny window.  
-Set a glass full of water on the window sill so that the bottom of the glass is extending slightly over the inside edge of the sill.
-The water in the glass acts as a prism and makes a spectrum on the white paper.

Tada!  Now you know how to make a rainbow when ever the feeling strikes!

This was just one of the many awesome experiments brought to you by the How and Why Wonder book of Science Experiments in the Science Library Vol. I...check it out here.
