Fun in the Forecast – Plan your Snow Day!

By Jessica Newcomer January 26, 2016
Fun is in the forecast! You’ll be ready for the next snowfall with these five things to do with your kids on snow days:

Snowmen, sledding and snowball fights! Go out and play in the snow. It melts quickly, so don’t miss out on Mother Nature’s free frozen playground!

Baking!  Picture watching the snow fall in a warm, sweet smelling kitchen. Get your kids involved and treat yourself to some comfort food.

Snuggle up with some blankets on the sofa and enjoy some family reading time!  Have each child pick their favorite book and enjoy some educational family time while watching the snow fall.

Roll up your sleeves and get into an art project! Snow days are the perfect day to get out the paint and play dough.  Or smear peanut butter on pine-cones and roll them in bird seed for some outdoor art (and snacks!) for your backyard friends.

Create a movie theater experience in your living room!  Pop some popcorn, get some snacks and juice boxes and make a concession stand.  Have your kids make their own movie tickets while you get everything set up.
