My little girl (she's 2) loves her arts and crafts, we have a craft chest filled with card, paper, paint, crayons, ribbon and glittery stickers.

we bake homemade goodies and play in a den telling stories and singing songs!

We build dens 'indoors', lots of colourful blankets, cushions, and then extend our world with SHOPS, Restaurants,
WE MAKE SIGNS, prices, etc.

later they will do a puppet show,

it is wonderful to be entertained by a 3 and 5 year old.

I use the shelves from the bookshelf to make an asault course round the living room

On the last rainy day we had we decided to make use of the rain and make raindrop pictures.
Blob some different colour paints on to card and place outside in the rain. As the rain drops fall on the card and paint they format the patterns.
We got our card and paint all ready and typically the rain stopped just before we put them outside! The kids were actually cheering when it started to rain again half an hour later.

We put on 1950s music and dance! My little girl likes to put on her tutu and twirl, and we have competitions such as "silliest dance" and "most twirls." We sing along to the music, then get her teddies to dance too. Lots of fun on a wet day!

We like to build forts out of sofa cushions and blankets and have an indoor picnic in the fort!

we love potato printing

On a rainy day we get a roll of plain wallpaper and unroll it on the floor and decorate it with pens and pencils. x

We love a game. Ruckus and Happy Families are a big fav!

We get an Argos catalogue and I draw a house on a big piece of paper and my little girl cuts out different pieces of furniture and stick them in her house.

Def.building "DENS" out of sofa, blankets, pillows etc - hours of fun! :)

We have a makeshift stage and theatre and love to put on performances ... singing, reciting poetry and improvising. It is great for creativity.

We have a trampoline cover so son can enjoy trampoline in all weathers.
Indoor picnics are fun too

We love going swimming :)

We put up a sheet across the under stairs area and the children have torches and food and pretend to have a midnight feast. They also have to be very quiet and only whisper as it is the middle of the night! Everyone enjoys this.

On a rainy day (like today) we get together all the things we have collected/done on our not so rainy days and we make a scrapbook. This year's Summer scrapbook has lots of things stuck in it - cinema tickets, photographs, other attraction tickets, seashells, pictures to name a few. Both of my children decorate it to their tastes and draw & write descriptions of our days out too! This year has been a busy one and now we are planning a wedding and just found out that we have a new niece or nephew on the way so we've included all these things too! :)

we get the craft box out on rainy days.

We play a huge game of hide and seek, and they when they are all tired from this they pretend to be bugs in a rug, and crash out for an afternoon nap! :)

We love to build dens and pretend to be adventurers by setting up soft toy animals.

We build a tent in the lounge and make a den with a picnic and play board games

We love playing guess who, we have the Disney princess one and my dd loves it :)
