If you are like me you are ready for the winter weather to be over and the kiddos to go back to school. Here are some helpful winter boredom busters to help save your sanity and keep your kids entertained.
Outdoor Fun:
Snow Paint- Use a squeeze bottle or spray bottle with food coloring and water it and paint your snow.
*If you don’t have food coloring you could also use Kool-Aid or Juice.
Giant Marbles- Fill balloons with water and food coloring. Let freeze, remove balloon and set outside.
Feed the birds- Use old cereal or birdseed. Encourage older kids to make a picture with the feed on the ground (think mosaic).
Indoor Activities:
Make Snow Day Pancakes - regular pancakes with Powdered Sugar on top (want to be even more creative - lay a doily on top and sprinkle powdered sugar over the top then remove and check out the awesome pattern).
Blanket forts! Need I say more??
Skype or Google Hangout with family far away. Say hi to Grandma!
Board game tournaments! Have everyone pick their favorite games and whoever wins gets to pick the next game!
Down load some new tunes and have a Dance Party. Check out these FREE downloads from Amazon.
Start a new Snow Day Tradition - bake something together, watch movies (and check out this adorable little craft to have your own Drive In Movie *Pictured), make hot cocoa.
What about an indoor picnic for lunch. Pack a picnic basket just like a real picnic. Spread your blanket out and enjoy!
Have you ever made edible snowflakes- fold tortilla shells into quarters. Use scissors to cut shapes (just like the paper kind). Unfold to reveal your snowflake shape and lay them on a cookie sheet. Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar and bake at 350 degrees until crispy.YUM
