Keeping kids active when it rains

New Delhi, Monday,  August 13, When the rain becomes extreme outside the challenge lies in how to keep your kids active and entertained as they are bound to get bored unless we engage them with compelling activities. Here, are a few indoor games suggested for kids to keep them active as well as happy too.

• Duck Duck Goose - A classic which only requires a small space and a couple of participants,
• Musical Chairs - A few chairs and music,
• Play Catch - Make use of an open space. Soft bean bag or plush balls. Can roll the ball or catch. Mix it up based on the ages of the kids,
• Hop Scotch - Might require some assembly of a board,
• Jumping Jacks - Not only do they get exercise, but you can incorporate counting games into the mix,
• Build a fort - Make use of pillows, sheets, etc. to build a fort. From there the kids can choose to create a game,
• Have a Music Jam - Play guitar? Even if you are playing causes the neighborhood dogs to sing, it doesn't matter. The point is to just break out some instruments, play them, and let them belt out some songs to their heart's content. If you don't have any instruments on hand make use of pots, spoons, pillows, boxes, etc. Basically anything that can be safely used as a percussion instrument,
  Craft building, painting, coloring, drawing and card games are also there for your kids as they will keep them active, innovative and creative as well. So, leave the boredom of living indoor due to rain and enjoy these games with kids.
