Rain, rain go away, come again another day!
Actually, no – we need the rain… but it can add another layer of challenge for busy, creative kids who really need something to do.
It’s absolutely pouring buckets of rain outside – definitely not the day for outdoor crafting fun with the kids!

This might be a good day to get out a couple of cheap, plastic table cloths – lay them on the floor and let the kids have fun with washable paint!
How about making full-body portraits? Let the kids trace themselves (with a little help…) and then spend hours painting in the details.
If you feel like braving some acrylic paint – how about making painted t-shirts or tote bags? What about even making custom softies? Just give the kids some firmly woven fabric to paint, let dry then stitch and stuff.
