Fun Ways to Enjoy the Rain

So it's raining again and your kids are bored and don't know what to do.  Here's help with inspired ideas for anyone to have fun in the rain.

• Play a game in the rain: soccer, kickball, Bocci ball, Can Jam, etc.  It's all good and even more fun on a hot day in the rain.

• Stomp around in puddles.  What kid doesn't love a good round of puddle jumping?  You can always put them in a bathing suit if it's warm enough.

• Curl up with a good book or movie.  It's a great excuse to relax.

• Go swimming. As long as there's no thunder and lightening why not?  You get wet swimming anyway.

• Exercise in the rain.  Let's face it, it's refreshing and you'll stay cooler, especially on a very hot day.
