Weather Fun For Kids!

Weather can be fun, ya know. It's not just for the pocket-protector geek squad we meteorologists belong to! I just found a fun site for kids from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Fun and FEMA in the same sentence, who would've thought??

Disasters aren't fun, but learning about them doesn't have to be a downer. Check out FEMA's website for kids.

It has all kinds of games which help children understand nature and how to be better prepared should a natural disaster strike. shakewithquake.jpg
