Rainy day activities for kids into nature

Sometimes to a kid, a rainy/wintery day can be the absolute worst! Trapped inside with nothing to do-especially when they would like nothing better than to be outside!
Here are some ideas for activities that might help keep them interested in creative learning, as well as keep them occupied until the weather breaks!

1. Draw a nature park. Fill the park with whatever animals and plants come to mind, and then color them in.

2. Draw a spider web. Add the spider, and color it in. What does this spider eat? How big is it? where is it found in the world?

3. Make a tent with a sheet and chairs. Better load up for that expedition to wherever they are going!

4. Pick an animal they have never seen before out of a book and tell the child nothing about it. Have them draw and and make a fun report about it. What is it called? Where does it live? What does it eat? What are its predators? When the child is finished, compare and contrast with the actual facts regarding the animal.

5. Turn bath time into marine animal time! Load up that tub with just about anything safe and non-toxic, and leave it to the child's imagination to create a whole new underwater world.
Rainy days can be fun with a little imagination and some direction-feel free to use these ideas or create your own based upon them. Good luck!
