Not many people like rainy days, especially kids.
When the spring weather starts coming and it is getting warm outside, kids want to go out and play.
Waking up to a rainy day, however, can put a damper on anyone's mood.
It's a great idea to have some ideas for rainy day activities.
1.
Going to the library is a great rainy day adventure.
Your kids can pick out books and bring them home to read.
2.
Almost every kid likes to watch movies but choosing the right ones is important.
Educational movies are very easily available and will be beneficial to the child and make mom feel good as well.
3.
An 'idea box' is a good plan too.
Have the children put activity ideas in the box and on rainy days they can choose a surprise activity to do.
Just the thought of this will be fun for the kids.
4.
Having a dress-up tea party is fun too.
You could even take more rainy day time and make poodle skirts to wear to your tea party.
This can be great fun for moms and daughters.
5.
Another fun time killer is playing board games.
The sky is the limit for choices and varieties available.
Puzzles are also a good idea and smaller children tend to love them.
6.
Another idea is to play 'reverse writing'.
This game is geared towards slightly older children.
The object is to write a sentence backwards.
After giving it a shot you bring the paper to a mirror and see how successful you were.
7.
Baking cookies is always fun too.
Kids love to help by grabbing the ingredients from the fridge and mixing the dough.
The smell of the cookies baking will be amazing and eating them will be even better.
Snuggling under a blanket and watching the rain while enjoying some cookies and milk will be an absolute treat.
