Once upon a time, there was a curious little boy named Liam. One rainy afternoon, as the sun peeked through the clouds, a beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky. Liam gasped in wonder and ran to his mother, saying, "Mom, why do rainbows happen?" His mother smiled and explained, "Rainbows are magic made by sunlight and rain! When sunlight passes through raindrops in the sky, the light bends and splits into seven colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. That’s what makes a rainbow!" Liam’s eyes sparkled. "So, rainbows are like nature’s painting?" "Yes!" his mom laughed. "And do you know? You can only see a rainbow when the sun is behind you and the rain is in front of you."
From that day on, Liam always looked for rainbows after the rain, remembering how science and beauty could mix in the sky. He would run outside with joy whenever he spotted that colorful arc, shouting, “Look, Mom! A rainbow!” And his mother would join him, twirling around and reminding him of the magic hidden in nature. The world became an adventure for Liam, who began noticing how the sun played with puddles, how flowers danced in the breeze, and how every raindrop could create something beautiful together with the sunlight.
One sunny morning, Liam was playing in the garden when he saw the tiniest shimmer in the grass. Bending down, he discovered a small, sparkling pebble. It seemed to glow with all the colors of the rainbow! Excitedly, he ran inside to show his mom. "Look, Mom! I found a piece of rainbow!" he exclaimed, his eyes wide with wonder.
His mom chuckled and said, "It's a special stone, Liam. Sometimes, the world gives little gifts to those who look closely." Liam tucked the pebble safely in his pocket, feeling as if he had captured a bit of magic to carry with him wherever he went. From then on, he carried the pebble when he explored, imagining it was his very own rainbow companion on adventures.
Every day, Liam continued to explore and discover new wonders in his backyard, from ladybugs in the leaves to clouds shaped like animals. Each time, he felt his rainbow pebble in his pocket and knew that magic was everywhere around him. And with the sun shining on the world, Liam smiled, knowing that the magic of rainbows was just the beginning of his many adventures.
