312Q: Things to Do On a Rainy 80s Day

I was born in 1982 and got the book before I was twelve, so it was definitely printed before 1994, probably earlier. This book was called something like Things to Do On a Rainy Day, Rainy Day Book, or Rainy Day Activities, but the cover wasn’t anything like what I saw on Google or Amazon. I am concerned that the book cover may have changed if it were reprinted, which would hinder me from recognizing it if it has been reprinted. The book was approximately 8. 5×11 inches and was paperback. The cover has a picture of two kids looking at a treasure chest which is glowing and shining light on their faces–the chest is facing away from the viewer so you can’t see what is in it. The book contains really great activities such as making a printer’s cap from a square piece of paper, some words from a tribal language where only string is used to communicate, a detailed guide on making friendship bracelets with varying widths (flat braiding), and many other things that I can’t remember. This was a really great book. I want to get it again and get another copy for a friend. It was the best rainy day activity book I’ve seen, but it may just be because of the nostalgia. I read it and did activities for hours on many occasions and showed it to all of my friends that visited my house.
