Hurricane Sandy, Passing The Down Time


As hurricane Sandy travels across the east coastline many are bored at home or in a shelter, waiting out the storm. Most homes are out of electricity making it difficult to play an electronic game, to get online or watch TV.

The best fun things to do is play a board game, sing, hop scotch in a garage or any spacious area inside a protected building. With much down time allows the children to become bored and restless. So make it fun by entertaining them with many different fun things.

Always keep a flashlight, radio and extra batteries for operating. Water, snacks, pillows, blanket, sheet and many other important and necessary things to ride out the storm.

For the most part during a hurricane storm it can be boring being in one place for quite sometime, but with all the necessary essentials it's possible to make it fun for all involved.

Hurricane Isaac: Palm Beach School Closes Due To Flooding

  Hurricane Isaac brings a wet day across Palm Beach, FL; causes the closure of all schools. Along with dumping of 14 inches of rain is expected and flash flooding across the county, which means no school today. The kids will stay at home today allowing them to sleep in late, enjoy a movie or catch up with some extra home work. It boils down to an extended weekend break for the kids.
 
Too wet to be outside but extra comfy to be inside to watch a movie, play video games or do some home work. This day brings lots of joy and excitement to most kids, knowing that they have an extra day of break from the grind of another school day. There's always something fun to do, never short of something exciting.

Stay inside and be safe, if going outside be sure to take a rain coat or umbrella for safety and precaution. All in all, enjoy this wet, fun day at home in the comfy of your home. Make it exciting no matter what you do because tomorrow is another day to return, back to school.
