Draw and paint a rainbow on poster board with clouds on each end and cut out. Hang the rainbow on the wall over the party food table.
Colored cardboard stock or strong construction paper can be used to create a different type of banner with printed out and cut out text and rainbows. Punch holes in the upper corners of each of the letters and string together using rainbow colors yarn.
Balloons will help with the excitement of the party when you add them to the handmade banner that was created.
Paper lanterns are also exciting and fun, and make them colorful.

Over The Rainbow Food & Drinks: Skittles or jelly beans are very colorful, so they can be used as treats and decorations by placing them in clear jars or bottles. Provide the party guests with an assortment of fruits along with whole juice drinks (rainbow colored of course) on the party table. If serving bottle juice drinks remove the labels and use rainbow clip art with a special message of greeting on each party drink.
Fruits are a very healthy alternative to the usual sweets at a party, so add them to the table in a colorful arrangement. Bananas, strawberries, oranges, mangos, cantaloupe, blueberries, purple and green grapes, and marshmallows at the ends of the fruits to represent clouds.
