What to do on a rainy day?

Reservoirs in England must be filling up very quickly now. At least, that is what we expect and hope. It's been raining for two weeks non stop and the rain  promises to stay.

So what to do on a rainy day if we have kids?

Cuchi goes to Ballet, indoor tennis and swimming. What else? We have playdates with her pre-school friends and we do activities like:

• Playing with her tunnel toy. Both girls go through it and enjoy a lot!!

• Paint and colouring. I go to the Pound store (dollar store) to buy stickers and colouring pads that are used on a rainy day.
• Dress up! Kids love to dress up. Try getting some dress up clothes second hand in charity shops boot sales. They become handy on a rainy day!
• Read books
• Watch a movie or go to the movies. Although my girls are little, some older kids could go to matinee sessions.
• There are plenty of rainy day activities for free. 

When you go out and about on a rainy day, bring an extra pair of clothes. Cuchi got wet today, fortunately I'm always prepared and she got changed!

Good luck and don't get wet!
