Rainy Day Activities







The dreadful rainy season has started in the Pacific Northwest. As a family with four little children, it's not a good news. Kids no longer can run around the deck while I cook or explore front yard for a change of scenery. For the next 9 month or so, we'll have to be creative and use all the resources available to keep the kids occupied. Sean at the moment is into painting and he can last up to 30 minutes with it. Alyson also likes to paint, but 10 minutes is the maximum for her. They also like playdoughs but 30 mins is pushing their limited attention span! Noah would eat anything, so I am still hesitant to let him play with those. We'll have to do more craft activities, which is not my talent at all. But I will do anything to keep them from pulling all the spices out from the kitchen shelf, or banging drawers and cabinets simultaneously!! Rainy season's fun... rainy season's fun...
