This Week —

We all miss those lazy, rainy Sundays sans kids when we’d be doing the couch-brunch-museum circuit. At present, rainy days with little Elves look quite different, am I right? But I’m here to say that you can make those rainy days cozy and chill if you’re prepared. How? Set the tone with this playlist and have some secret activities on the ready (see hot tip below).

Listen To —

Spend your drizzly Sunday with your kiddies while listening to our Rainy Day Playlist which includes everything from Chopin to Bobby McFerrin. Remember, music is intensely powerful—there’s no other stimulus that engages the brain as widely music does. So use it intentionally on these days to get the whole family on the same wavelength, aka Chill FM.

Win the Day —

This week’s tip: keep a secret stash of activities or art materials that magically appear only on specific days, like rainy ones, for example. I’m not organized enough to put together a whole kit, so I buy these fantastic, ready-made science and art boxes from Green Kid Crafts! For kids ages 2 and up, each box comes with 4-6 activities that’ll keep your kids engaged all day long with fun experiments, creative engineering, and science activities. You can buy them separately or subscribe and get a box delivered to your door monthly! They also plant a tree for every online order, which is reason #8274 why I love them.

Happy Chillin in the Rain!
