Both children are shown side on and facing the same way, standing in a wide puddle whose ripples spread in rings around their boots. Each holds an umbrella of their own rather than sharing one, which leaves you two canopies to work on, and every panel has been left completely blank. Hooded raincoats, a patch pocket on each front and a scatter of raindrops overhead finish the scene, with nothing else competing for attention.
Two umbrellas invite two palettes. Let one child take warm shades for canopy and coat, give the other cool ones, then fill the puddle with a pale version of whichever pair you like better so the halves of the picture still belong to each other.
Rain smells the way it does because of petrichor, a mixture of plant oils and a compound called geosmin that soil bacteria release into the ground. Dry earth holds onto it, and the first drops of a shower knock it loose into the air, which is why the smell is always strongest as the rain starts rather than once it has settled in.
