On a rainy day, wait for the rain to stop then take your child outside to find a puddle on the side walk or driveway and draw or have your child draw a line a couple of inches around the puddle.

Take your child outside to look at the puddle several times throughout the day and talk about the puddle becoming smaller and the water cycle.

This activity will help your child learn communication skills, thinking skills, size (larger, smaller) as well as learning about the water cycle.
