10 Fun Snow Activities for Kids
Although it’s been an unseasonably warm winter for us in Indiana thus far, we know more snow days are soon to replace the 40 and 50 degree temps we’ve been enjoying. Snow days are a lot of work to get bundled and dressed x 4 but it always pays off in pure delight! These ten snow activities combine indoor and outdoor ideas, so if you’re in a warm climate that lacks the magical white stuff, you can still enjoy these with your little one(s)!
