Of course, we know that that common way to complete that phrase is “May flowers,” but what if this April we played it a little different and looked at April showers as a reason to play in the rain or at least let our kids get a little wet one afternoon?

Granted, our natural inclination is to find some “indoor” activities to keep everyone busy when the rain comes down, but we’ve got some suggestions for taking the activities outside. Sure, you may get a little (a lot?) wet, but it’s a day your kids will long remember!
