Sometimes the thought of rain or heavy wind on a day out can make us want to stay indoors and curl up with a film. But, if bad weather catches you by surprise it might even turn your day out into an adventure. Arla Big Milk would like to hear about the adventures you’ve had because of bad weather.

Here’s what Arla Big Milk has to say: “We know how important it is to get your little explorers out in the world around them, so we’ve partnered with Magic Light to bring you yearlong BIG Adventures. We’re also running an on pack monthly prize draw, available across UK grocery retailers, to give you the chance to win an amazing trip to Chessington World of Adventures Resort.

So, if you want to join in on the adventure rain or shine, come visit our site to explore activities for your half term.”

Have you raced to find shelter in the woods when you’ve encountered an unexpected downpour? Perhaps you’ve embraced the rain and gone puddle jumping with your children? Maybe you’ve seen a new side to nature when you’ve been out in the wind and rain? Share below to be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice (from a list).

When we had the ‘Beast from the East’ I remember going out with DH and making rude snowmen in our front garden! Rather childish but very funny. We’ve got some great pictures.

My son loves to splash in puddles!

When my daughter was 3 years old, me, my boyfriend, our daughter and our dog went for a weekend caravan holiday. It rained all weekend. The fridge was broken so all we could eat was bread and butter. The only warm room was the living room so we all stayed in there with aaaaallll the covers and duvets. All we had was 3 films on video tape (that had been taped off the telly)- Babe (we watched 3 times), Ice Age (we watched twice) and Annie (We watched once but the ending was taped over by a Gardening show). This sounds like the worst holiday but this was my favourite and most memorable.

I was driving my daughter back from a Surestart Christmas party and it started to snow really heavily. The car I had at the time was not good in snow and we got stuck on a hill near home. I had to leave the car at the side of the road and push her in the pushchair the rest of the way home. She thought it was hilarious under her see through cover but I didn't enjoy the buggy getting stuck in the snow and a (normally) 5 minute walk taking half an hour!
