I just played out in the rain with my kids yesterday. In fact, over the last 3 weeks we have played in the rain 4 times.

The kids LOVE it~ it feels refreshing to me~ and seeing the pure joy and squeals of laughter on their faces makes the fact that I have to strip them naked and throw all of their clothes in the wash and clean up drippy, wet tile all the way to the bathroom get more clothes out and re~dress 2 preschoolers totally worth it to me.

Video games have never elicited that kind of response in any child that I have ever witnessed. I think your son was having a blast with his new friend. I hope he is invited back over to play.


BTW....a Mother sitting in the garage watching TEENAGERS "play" is almost unheard of these days. I think you ought to ENCOURAGE this friendship instead of discourage!
