RAINY DAYS

What to do on those rainy days. That is the question for all of us fortunate enough to live in the Northwest.  Here are some ideas.

  • Play with blocks
  • Bake some cookies
  • Play a game
  • Watch their favorite movie
  • Explore a discovery box
  • Read books
  • Sing songs
  • Have fun with finger plays
  • Create some funky art to display on your fridge
  • Play with playdoh 
  • Have a play date with your friends
  • Take them on a trip to the Children's Museum, a play or library story time.
  • Make a card for Dad when he gets home
..an the list goes on.  Our favorite idea, for those rainy spring weekends: don the rain gear and go hiking.  But a word of caution: side effects of hiking in the rain include a runny nose, soggy socks and a day's worth of laundry when you get home.  Benefits on the other hand--lots of nice, unforgettable memories to fill up their childhood.
