WATER PLAY

With the rains pouring outside, it is difficult for you to divert your toddler from not playing in the water. But, during monsoons, kids can be overly sensitive to the weather, and there is always a risk of falling sick. Being at home most of the times, kids tend to get bored and cranky, and often end up watching television or get hooked to mobile phones playing games. Spending some time with your kid and playing with her will keep her occupied. Water play is one of the best activities to keep your child engaged. Stay-at-home mum, Pooman Sonigra from Pune says, “My son, Darshit loves playing with rain water. Although I do not approve of him going out and playing during the monsoons, I set up an alternative water play at home.” She further adds, “We collect rain water in a bucket and transfer it into the tub. I help him make paper boats out of newspaper and float them in water.”
