Rainy Day fun

We had a good little spring rain come through yesterday afternoon while the kids were out riding their bikes. Just as it was about to pass us by the kids decided they wanted to jump in a few puddles before going inside.
I told them it was fine as long as I did not have to get wet. :snicker:

It is supposed to rain a good bit this week so I thought now would be a great time to make that "Rainy Day" box that I had been meaning to do for some time.

*Grab a large box

*Have the kids paint and decorate the box

Go through the kids toy boxes and find OLD toys that may have forgotten about, place them in the Rainy Day box

*Visit the DOLLAR STORE for more great ideas such as a deck of cards, paint, playdough, craft supplies....

*Add everything to the box and then put it up for a RAINY DAY!

(Since the kids will only be using the RAINY DAY box when it rains, they won't get bored with the contents.)

Another great idea:

"THE MYSTERY BAG"

Find a rather LARGE bag and fill it with all kinds of objects (Nothing too sharp or pointy)

Then have the kids reach in and feel something.

Can they tell you what it is??
