Rain or shine, umbrellas are environmental variables that’ll spark an abundance of playful activity and exploration. Simply opening and closing these nifty contraptions over and over again will fascinate some kids for hours. Among other things, they offer kids a chance to interact with rain, sun, and wind. These real life interactions teach a lot more about weather than laminated circle time suns, clouds, and raindrops.
