💡 Fun Fact!
Did you know that no two sunsets are ever the same? The unique colors we see at sunset are due to a phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering, where shorter blue light waves scatter and longer red and yellow light waves dominate as the sun lowers in the sky. This makes each sunset a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, just like your child's coloring page!
