Keeping it Cool Inside - Especially on Rainy Days

At a loss for how to entertain the kids? Gone are the days of playing outside from all day, riding bikes through the neighborhood. Kids today want to 'do something' and they mean fun.

Walking the mall is out, that means having to buy them things and with the carousel gone there is not much to snap photos of.

Bring your nook, laptop or iPad and get plugged in while the kids chill out. At Monkey Joe's you can spend a few hours in from the heat - or the rain. They have free wifi, televisions and even some comfortable adult seating to kick back while the kids play.

Better yet - save it for the weekend and have hubby take them while you catch up on errands and grocery shopping!

Where is your favorite indoor spot to take the kids on a rainy day?
