Cut a simple ark shape from another piece of paper (or draw directly).
Color it brown and glue it onto the middle panel.
Draw waves underneath with blue crayon or marker.
Add animals by drawing them or using small cutouts.

Below it, sketch a simple altar (a few stacked stones).
Write “God’s Promise” under the rainbow.
