(This can also be done by hand on any other sheet music by parents or children.)The colour assignment is based on the physical basis of octaving the tone until it shows the corresponding colour in the colour spectrum. (Eg. low C and high C both are the same colour). The child experiences the richness of colour of the whole rainbow with the sound.
