I was still very young when I played in the rain (and mud) with my cousins...I must have been 4 or 5 years old. Every time it rained hard we went out to play.
Great memories... :D

You were lucky to be allowed in the rain at so young an age. My parents watched over us like hawks, so playing in the rain was a no-no. However, once during my school years, at the end of a term break, we were walking back (my best friend and our boyfriends); it started pouring very heavily. We ran for shelter under 2 big trees. We were soaked, so my boyfriend started singing to me, Neil Sedaka's 'Laugher in the Rain'. That was one great memory!

Yes I must have been lucky my parents did not prohibit me from having fun in the rain (except when I was not feeling well). However, most of the times when I ran around getting soaked, my parents were not around! My cousins and I used to live near each other's houses so we all conspired not to tell our parents about our rain adventures. :D

I haven't played in the rain since I was like, sixteen or seventeen. I miss little moments like that, I really do. I think it's because part of me doesn't want to get older. Well most people don't, I guess. Just thinking about those days keeps me feeling alive.

So nice to have you start this discussion when you did. I am on vacation in my hometown. I drove my kids around showing them around where i used to live and we came to one place that had great memories of playing in the rain. The apartment complex had a play area where when it rained hard it filled with water. When it was filled we would play and swim in the area. We did not have much money in fact everyone in the nieghborhood didn't have much money so we would always find ways of entertaining ourselves. We even rode our skateboards down the small hill. What good times you remeber when you go back to your home town. Just visiting back home has been the best for me and I have another 2 weeks :).

I think I was about 11 or 12 years old. It just rained hard one day and our parents just allowed us to go shower in the rain. Ha ha. It was fun although it was a bit uncomfortable. There were other boys around my age who were also playing in the rain, and I was afraid the nipples would betray themselves even when I had 2 shirts on. Lol.
