Oh man, that's the worst! I've been enjoying doing water colors with my kids recently, we put a sheet down on the kitchen table to catch any spills. But the kids are obsessed with painting sunsets right now and it's been very fun. You could also try making homemade playdough? That's always a hit too!

Yayy!! I'm so glad that worked out. I feel like my default is always art projects and I'd like to get more creative with like "science experiments" but I'm glad the art projects worked for today!

We also have three school-age kids -- 11, 8, 6. My baby girl is 6 and loves jigsaw puzzles, so during rain/snow day sessions we open a 100-piece puzzle and work on that. My wife takes the two boys and lets them pick a board game -- Monopoly is a favorite. So is Sorry and Chutes & Ladders. So we do the "divide and conquer" strategy. We used to play board games together. I'm banned for life from Monopoly.

I'm banned from taboo and catchphrase lmao

Ugh I hate when that happens, we have been there and pretty soon everyone is going stir crazy. I honestly look up many of the ideas we do on pinterest or Tik Tok. I just look up activities for kids and look for ones we haven't done yet. Lots of fun ideas out there.
