On rainy days
1. Clear out the garage, attic, cupboards or wardrobes* - it really doesn’t matter as long as you do it together.
2. Go charity shopping. While away the hours browsing for books, CDs, games, retro clothing, bric-a-brac. You could try a carboot sale or trawl round some antique shops.
3. Visit an art gallery. Find an exhibition in your area.
4. Enjoy a movie marathon.* Visit the video shop, stack up on snacks and spend the day being film critics. And if you’re stuck for inspiration, take a look at bbc.co.uk/films to find out which new releases should be top of your list!
5. Get some exercise. Go swimming, bowling or ice skating.
6. Step back in time and visit a museum. Many of the buildings themselves deserve a look and you never know you might learn something at the same time!
7. Have an evening of pick’n'mix. Take a look at the TV listings and create a night of entertainment.
