101 Things to do on a Rainy Day

101 activities to inspire and excite when you're stuck inside, with everything from simple and creative things to distract kids for ten minutes to crafts and experiments that will keep them entertained all day long.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
'I'm bored' must be the most frightening words in a child's vocabulary, and how to keep kids entertained is something that keeps many of us awake at night. 101 Things to do on a Rainy Day is a brilliant collection of creative (and occasionally crazy) games, activities, and projects to do when you're stuck indoors—without having to go anywhere near a TV or computer screen!

Why not grow a windowsill herb garden, make your own jigsaw, or learn to play the glasses? Get crafty with decoupage and salt dough, or play detective by dusting for fingerprints. Exciting makes include terrariums and kaleidoscopes, whilst wacky games cover everything from Balloon Stomp to Sticky Note Scramble. All 101 ideas only require materials that you'll already have around the house. With a wealth of ingenious and fun suggestions to keep you amused, you might not even notice that the rain has stopped.

The activities are written with children aged 5+ years in mind, but it's your call as to how much help, support, and age-appropriate supervision they might need... make whatever adjustments are necessary.
