By Julia Hembree, Publisher, Athens Macaroni Kid April 29, 2016
There's something about a gray, rainy day that makes me want to curl up with a cup of tea, a book, and my cat for a leisurely day of reading and sleeping. 

Except I have children, so that will have to wait another 18 years or so. 

In the meantime, there are places around Athens to take your little ones so you don't go crazy from being stuck in the house on a rainy day. 

Here are some local rainy day favorites: 

  • Active Climbing
