    Rainy day activities…we like walking in the rain. It makes my son so happy. But also putting on a fire and having some serious play time on the floor. The library is great for rainy days as well.

    Rainy days? Today in NW Iowa I’d have to switch it to our favourite SNOWY day activity! 🙂 But favourite stuck-inside activities: reading, snuggling on the couch, baking together, doing crafts, and occasionally watching a movie. Of those listed, reading is my kids’ favourite! We can sit and read together for an hour!

    My son is 4months so he loves to do anything. I love the rain but now with a child prefer sunny days to be able to take him to the park or for a walk outside. But on rainy days, I bring out his toys in the living room and all day we play and of course during his naps we cuddle together!

    My personal favorite rainy day activity is to take a nap. There’s something about being all snuggled up in the blankets when it’s drizzly outside.

    With my daughter, we like to read books, play play-dough, color, and play trains.

    Wish for sunshine! We live in the Pacific Northwest and we’ve had too much rain!!!
    I’ll go shopping at the store, take my kids to an indoor play time, or stay at home and veg ’cause 40+ days of gray rain makes one want to do nothing.
