Rainy days are the best because on rainy days we can stay home instead of going to school. We can relax, read books and drink tea. Rainy days are good for napping and taking walks. And rainy days are especially good when you aren’t feeling well because you can stay in all day and watch TV.

It is good when it rains because it makes you feel more relaxed. Some scientists think rainy days make people happy because they remind them of being inside their mother when they were a baby.
