Also, how do you make a water hose rainbow? To make a rainbow of your own, you will need: a sunny day, and a garden hose (hooked up to a water source) with a fine mist nozzle. While standing in a sunny spot, point the hose in the direction of your shadow, and turn it on. Instant rainbow!!
Similarly, you may ask, how do you make a rainbow with paper and glass?
Instructions:
- Fill the glass almost to the top with water.
- If you are using sunlight, place the glass so that it is half on and half off the edge of a table, and so that the sun shines directly through the water, onto a sheet of white paper on the floor.
