Rainy Days

I purposely purchased this book for my mother whose name is the same as the author as a novely gift. It just so happens that my daughters have the same book and really enjoyed it.

Rainy Days and Saturdays

I loved the book because it gives me a lot of ideas to try out with my son. The ideas in the book are imaginative, creative and fun. Some of the activities are quite difficult but overall, its a fairly good compilation of activities to do with kids. Not only does it keep them busy, but they will learn something form some activities too. Sure beats just letting them watch TV.
