Teach rainy day camping skills, how to make waterproof matches start a fire with wet birch bark, etc. Learn to bake with a reflector oven made out of coat hangers and tin foil. Tons of things in the Boy Scout Handbook. Tents are always fun in the rain. Take that tarp off the tractor in the front yard and hang it over the swing set for a huge tent. Make ice cream! If you do something commercial, plan extra time. Everybody else will be there too. Give each kid a roll of duct tape and a cardboard box. Make something.
