Think you have to stay inside when the weather's bad? Think again! With the right gear, you can brave the elements any day.

• Stomp through puddles and look for mud. Just be careful of the worms that might be underfoot.
• See if you can solve the mystery of where animals go when it rains. Or, lend them your raincoat.
• If it's windy, throw leaves into the air and see how far they go.
• After the storm, investigate all the ways things have changed. Like how Granny's backyard is flooded and ours isn't.
