The Rainy Window is a short, calm poem about weather and noticing, written for Autism Learning Guide to read aloud with your child.

Listen together Read aloud by Amy · 20 seconds

Pitter, patter on the glass,

Watch the little raindrops pass.

One drop slides and races down,

Little puddles on the ground.

Grey clouds drifting, soft and slow,

Later, maybe, a rainbow.

Talk about it together

What sound does the rain make?

Tip: read it again tomorrow. Children often enjoy saying the last word of each line once the poem feels familiar.
