What's there to do on a rainy day?
Yes, it's that time of year, but forgive us if we are running short on ideas for indoor fun. We've had more rain in this past week than we usually get in some months. The water tables are high and our patience with being stuck inside is running low.
If that describes you and your family, you might want to put the Purple Bear creative toys shop on your to-do list. One of the owners, Mark, brimming over with enthusiasm, will be happy to give you driving lessons for a Car In A Can and explain how the family can use them to have races in your family room without destroying the furniture.
If flying sounds like more fun, he has a helicopter you can take out for a spin. If that sounds like too much, try the flying smilie face. I can guarantee it will put a smile on your face.
The Purple Bear is at 63 Whitfield Street in Guilford. The telephone number is 203-458-TOYS. If Mark is not there, you can talk with Kim, Rachael or Jill. Like them on Facebook and you'll get half off on the Car In A Can for as long as that promotion lasts.
