Patch Guide to Rainy Day Boredom in Harford County

HARFORD COUNTY, MD--If April showers bring May flowers, Maryland will be in full bloom next month.

The National Weather Service is predicting a chance of rain continuously through Saturday night and 30-degree temperature swings throughout the weekend.

But gloomy skies don’t have to mean a gloomy weekend!

Some people will take this opportunity to hunker down with a warm blanket and a good book, or maybe even catch up on Eaglet Mania with the #dceaglecam, while others will need an outlet for their cooped up kids.

We asked Patch Readers in Harford County how they’ll stay busy, and keep their kids content, during an overcast afternoon. Here’s a list of suggestions for the cozy reader and the restless parent this weekend:

• "Send him to Grammys house"
• "Its alway boardgames, we actually like rainy days for this .... and NO cell phones allowed"
• "Stay in bed and watch movies all day!"
