Are there sunnah practices for rain or bad weather that can be taught to children?

Rain is a mercy, and greeting it with supplication and gratitude is a sunnah that awakens children's hearts to the signs of Allah. Teach children to ask for beneficial rain when it falls, and to ask for safety during a storm. Use the moment to show Allah's greatness in nature. Avoid complaining about the weather; turn attention to the blessing of water and the life it brings. Take the opportunity to make supplication together as a family, even for a moment by the window. Small things like this teach children to be grateful in every situation. See du'a & prayer.
