Jumping In Muddy Puddles

The kids have colds and it's been rainy out. We've been mostly cozy inside the past few days. As I've mentioned before, Maxwell and Ella love the Nick Jr. show Peppa Pig. In this show, darling British piggies adore 'jumping in muddy puddles.' First thing yesterday morning the kids wanted to run out in the eye of the storm with rain boots on. I made them wait until the afternoon calm. Should I have let them out and get wet and chilly when they have colds? Maybe not. Today Ella's coughing. Seemed like a good idea at the time.
