Rain Rain Go Away...
...because my boys want to go out and play. And, if they don't get out to play, mommy may not survive this day...
When my boys are cooped up inside all day they have a tendency to go wild. They fight. They get into EVERYTHING. The house turns into a warzone and disaster area unfit for us all.
They have been fighting over a piece of garbage. A piece of a purple broken toy. Honestly, I don't even know what it is. With possibly over a gazillion books, movies, games, etc. to choose from they want to fight over that one piece of junk. Imagine that.
I need to work today. I didn't work last Friday or the Easter weekend nor yesterday so you can imagine how swamped I am. I've got content to write, books and products to review, blog entries to write, two contests to judge, and an inbox full of emails to go through.
Maybe I should just give up until this evening??? Put some music on and dance with my boys until dinner time. That's been a good stress reliever(for me) and energy reliever (for the boys) as of late.
What do you and your kids do on rainy spring days? If it was a bit warmer, I'd let them play in the rain.Labels: motherhood, mothering, rainy days inside, work at home mom

We have a smaller tent that we set up. Well it IS kind of big. Anyway, the kids love camping so they love to pretend camp. They use blocks of wood to make a fire. They have a kitchen with tons of food so they make hot dogs on the fire. It's a day of pretend play. Also on rainy days we watch movies or play games. The camping is to make them entertain themselves:) Hope your day turns out great! I can't wait until Lost!
Play board games? Watch movies? Good luck! I hope the rain goes away soon.
It's no fun when we can't get outside here, too. Working on days like that is almost impossible for me. I think Tasha's campout idea is a great one.
Here in UAE we don't have many rainy days but we do have a lot of days that are just to plain hot! We play a scavenger(sp? #**# oh sorry brain fart) hunt game. This keeps them out of my hair while they are looking for the objects on the list. Yea it requires a bit of prep time but I can drag this game out for at least an hour or a bit more. Good luck!
