Build a nature scene
A waterfall is the perfect centrepiece for a landscape. Set it among the mountains, surround it with a forest of trees and a winding river, and you've got a stunning scene. For the water, colour with light-to-dark blues and leave some white where it splashes and foams at the bottom.
How waterfalls form
Waterfalls are a great way to explore geography and the water cycle. They form where a river flows over a sudden drop or over rocks of different hardness, slowly wearing them away over a very long time. Talk about where the water comes from and where it goes next.
Look for the rainbow
Here's a magical fact: on a sunny day, a rainbow often appears in the misty spray of a waterfall! Add one to your picture for a little extra wonder. Waterfalls are also home to fish and birds, and in very cold places they can even freeze into giant icicles in winter.
