What do you do with the DC on a rainy day? Share with Bassetts Vitamins for a chance to win £300! NOW CLOSED

[AnnMumsnet]

To celebrate the re-launch of the Bassetts Vitamins range for all the family, they'd like you to share on this thread what you do with your DC (young or old) on a rainy day.

Do check out the video one of our bloggers made for them

Bassetts Vitamins say "we think family life is all about big puddles, big mud, big adventures, big tree-houses, big imaginations, big games, big days out, big messes, big noises and big fun - now we'd love to hear what fun times you and your family get up to when it's raining outside".

As the range includes vitamin products for all ages from 6 months, they'd love to hear from you, whatever age your DC are - whether they are teens or toddlers - what do you do or encourage your DC to do when it's all grey and rainy outside?

Add your comment to the thread and you'll be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for John Lewis.

Thanks and good luck.

We play games, make things using our craft box, do some baking, get some puzzles out or some books.

We get creative with paints, drawing etc

Cosy up and watch a film or play games x

play games, also my son likes drawing ,he is very creative

We tend to have filmathons, watching all the Harry Potters etc..., or do lots of therapeutic colouring...very satisfying - simply so!

Indoor picnic is always fun! Making play doh and cookies is too!

It's a case of more like what don't we do?! There is playing with toys, drawing, reading, baking things, going for a walk in our raingear anyway and yes even a little bit of TV!!

Playing dress up is always good fun although I always have to be Peter Pan while she is Tinkerbell. Im not even allowed to be Wendy!

Lots of drawing and colouring, maybe make cakes, or we might go out to Blue Planet to see the sharks as we have an annual pass.

They love to build dens, so we just have to do the indoor version- usually involving the table, our bed, (Which is higher,) and some blankets. There's rarely a cushion still in place, but at least they eat their lunch if I let them "Picnic" in there ;)

we usually do some baking or make some popcorn and watch a movie together.

Arts, crafts and baking! It's what I teach at school so naturally its fun to do it at home.

Cry! (ok, maybe just today!) We'll still get out if it's not absolutely chucking it down. Being cooped up in the house does't work! Today we painted a picture of Father Christmas, made cakes, put up Christmas lights, played in the garden and then when the rain stopped, and it was nearly dark, we went to the park, just to get that bit of a run around before bed.

We put on coats and wellies and go jumping in muddy puddles!

Make a play up :)

Baking, Colouring and a Movie!

We have movie days and build dens

It depends how miserable it is. If it's just a bit of drizzle we'll carry on with the park/zoo/hike as normal but if it's freezing cold and lashing it down then we stick to soft play, swimming, Lego and a film night.

Baking and board games :)

We enjoy Scrabble, Monopoly and card games.

We play board games like Cluedo or Monopoly

we love baking cakes or doing crafts

Bring the outside indoors and have a picnic and 'build a camp' indoors :-)

Play Lego, paint, watch tv :)

Bake cakes, do crafts like painting, drawing, play with toys and board games.
