    What I am going to do with my kids if it snows here this year, is make “Cars” cars from real, snow covered cars. Just draw the eyes in the snow on the front window! Photos are on Pinterest, where I got the idea.

    Love your site!

    What a great round-up! Usually I find one or two projects in a round-up I really love and want to try. Yours was different. I loved EVERYTHING! Although I’m already getting a bit sick of this cold weather, you’ve provided some great ideas for getting the kiddos through the rest of the season. Thanks so much!

    […] We’re talking about seasonal fun, here, so if you live in an area that gets snow use it to bond with your kids.  Build a snowman out in the fresh, crisp air, make snow angels, have a snowball fight, find an ice skating rink or hockey rink that has open skating time. For some more fun and creative outdoor ideas check out: Snow and Ice Activities […]
