Rainy Day Kids Adventure Book

A practical companion to help kids enjoy outdoor activities and adventures even when it's rainy, snowy or windy.

As the weather turns into autumn and the kids start watching more television and staring at the computer, how can you get them out and about in the cooler months? Outdoor enthusiasts Steph Scott and Katie Akers are also teachers and mothers, with years of experience in finding new and novel ways to get kids to enjoy the great outdoors, whatever the weather.

Rainy Day Kids Adventure Book is packed with ideas for games, activities, and nature crafts that are perfectly suited to the autumnal and winter months of rain and wind. From puddle painting and making your own nature paint brushes to creating wind spinners from golden leaves and feathers, there is something for every child to enjoy. Why not try puddle pouncing or raindrop racing, or create a pool and spa for an elf? Perhaps crafting a leafy woven kite, windmill, or nature parachute for the windy weather could spark their interest?

There are plenty of autumnal bits and bobs just waiting for a creative hand. The book provides the best advice for wrapping up to stay dry and warm while outdoors. It also offers ideas for things to collect outdoors that can be used for stay-at-home projects if you don't want to stay outside too long.

The book encourages youngsters to see the excitement of wind, snow, and rain, and to enjoy the elements with fun projects that excite the imagination.
