SNOW MUCH FUN!

It’s that time of year when the snow falls and falls and falls.  While it can make traveling a bit tiresome, winter also presents us with many wonderful opportunities to spend quality time together.  Here are just a few ideas of what to do with your family and all that snow!

• Make snow cream, a glacier, an ice candle, a snow scene in a jar, bird treats, or ice paintings

• Play outdoor snow games

• Look for animal tracks

• Help your neighbors by patrolling the ice and snow

The library also has books for more fun activities: 

• Kids Winter Handbook by Jane Drake

• Go Outside! Over 130 Activities for Outdoor Adventures by Nancy Blake

• Winter Day Play! Activities, Crafts, and Games for Indoor and Out by Nancy Castaldo

• 365 Days of Creative Play: for Children 2 years and Up by Sheila Ellison

• Science for All Seasons: Winter by Lucia Kemp Henry

• Games Treasury: More than 300 Indoor and Outdoor Favorites with Strategies, Rules and Traditions by Merilyn Simonds Mohr
