Weather and Feelings!
How does the weather make you feel?
Often times our feelings can be like the weather or change with the weather.
This activity is a great way for your child to express themselves through drawing and writing.
- Download our weather and feelings worksheet
- Grab some writing utensils
- Get outside!
Have your child think about how they’re feeling at that moment, and have them compare it to the kind of weather it may relate to on the worksheet above. You can have them only draw the weather and a picture of how they feel or they can draw and then write down what they drew to bring it all together.
Want to go a bit further? Take them outside, have them document the current weather.
- Did going outside change their mood?
- Do you like this weather?
- What does the weather look like today?
- If this is not your favorite weather, what is?
We can’t wait to see what you draw and how your feeling! Be sure to share your worksheet and any journal pages you may have used with us by tagging @iWRITElit and using the hashtag #iWRITEathome.
This free creative writing activity was made possible thanks in part to the support of the Pi Beta Phi Foundation.
