I feel like we skipped autumn completely in my neck of the woods. Last week it was 84 degrees, today it’s 44 and we are expecting snow flurries in a few days. All too soon, the white stuff will cover our lawns. There’s nothing quite so satisfying to a child’s heart as waking up to see the snow flying and hearing that school has been canceled! However, kids do get restless after a few hours of boredom so here are 50 fun ideas to keep them entertained.
Cozy Up with a Book
Grab a warm mug of apple cider and a soft blanket, snuggle on the couch and read a book about snow!
I’ve gathered 10 and listed them here.
