When it's rainy and cold out most kids end up being stuck inside with nothing better to do than bounce off the walls driving their parents insane. Rainy days do not have to be like this. With a little direction and creativity, your house can be a source of a lot of fun for your kids. Using common household items that you likely have laying around the house there is a wealth of activities to keep the kids entertained for good chunks of time.
An indoor scavenger hunt is always fun. Find toys or trinkets that are age appropriate to hide all over the house. Set a timer and let the kids go at it.
