Hi All,
I've skimmed over the last few weeks worth of blog posts and a somewhat regular theme seems to have emerged - perhaps I did it unconsciously, or not. I'm really not sure, but I do seem to post a lot about the weather. As soon as I realized this, I thought of yet another weather-related post.
Lots of Farmingdale residents have children...and the weather (here it is again!) isn't so splendid in the Fall. As a matter of fact, it can be downright nasty what with all the rain, wind, clouds and stuff during this time of year. Now, add to this fact that folks might have children - and they probably aren't playing outside during this type of nasty, cold, rainy weather.
So...what to do with children during the inclement weather? Indeed, we'll come to your rescue and find something to at least keep the little ones a bit amused during this time of year!
Click here to find some rainy day activities for your 6-10 year old. This site has divided up the games into memory games, word games, science games and card games (go figure) and guessing games and more...cute and easy to navigate website.
Click here for a site called
'Kids Can Have Fun During Rainy Days - which is more of a summary of what you can do with your kids during this weather.
Brought to you live, from Helium.com is the next entry:
Indoor Rainy-Day Activities For Children. I need to explain a bit about this site. The above link is really a link to a list of pages that discuss what to do with children during the bad weather.
Clicking on an individual link will get you to the actual article itself. In other words, there is a built in extra layer that users - this means you - have to click through to actually get to the material you are interested in. Makes sense? I hope so.
So...for example, I clicked on the first entry by Trudy Brown. Note that you have to click on the title of the article that you are interested in once you get to this page. Click
here to follow the link from Helium.com
Finally,
click here for a site from AmazingMoms.com and an article called BoredomBusters. Notice that at the end of this article they have more games for children to play during the foul weather.
Okay...here is another site that is very, very helpful. It is called
Babycenter.com and I typed in a search in the box at the top right side of the webpage.
I used the phrase 'rainy day activities' and the results can be seen by clicking on this link. I suspect that you will now have lots of things to do with your children when inclement weather prevents them from playing outside.
I hope these sites are entertaining and keep your children busy during the nasty weather.
