This is the Rainbow Snake Aboriginal Story for kids. In the dreamtime, the Earth laid still. Nothing moved, nothing grew. It was all bare! One day, the Rainbow Serpent awoke from a long sleep under the ground. She traveled all over. Wherever she went, she left the marks creating rivers where she moved and lakes where she slept. She returned to the place she first woke up and called out to the frogs. "Hey, friends, come out! come out!" she cried.

Some of them lived in rocks, some of them in trees and others lived in the air. The Rainbow Serpent gave them laws to live by peacefully. Later, some of the animals became disruptive and caused trouble. "Those who follow my laws will be rewarded and given human form. And those who break my laws will be turned into stone forever," declared the Rainbow Serpent. Even after giving the warnings, many animals broke the laws and soon turned into mountains and hills.

"A man must not each from their totem, only of others," was the only condition to survive. That way, there was plenty to eat for everyone.
