Its raining very hard now, and I can help but remember my childhood days when I would beg my mother to let me play in the rain. The neighborhood kids then will flock in my grandmother's store's water downspout, and we would pretend we are in the bathroom shower. Wow, it's not anymore advisable for kids to play in the rain, especially in urban areas like here in our place because of the pollution in our environment. Maybe in rural areas, playing in the rain can still be done without the risk of being exposed to acid rains.

I used to love playing in the rain when I was a girl, riding my bike through the puddles etc. My children also love playing in the rain, my son loves playing football in the rain as well.

I think about my little nephew who likes to play a ball on a puddly road and laugh when he gets wet.

Hi. joanagirl. Welcome to myLot! I don't really let my kids play in the rain when it is very cold outside. If they play in the rain, it will be only when it is drizzling. After that, I will tell them to come inside of the house. It is fun to play in the rain and many kids enjoy it too.
