It’s cold outside and there’s snow on the ground (hopefully packing snow). Do you stay inside where it’s warm and dry? Or do you bundle yourself up and get outside?

GET OUTSIDE!

There are lots of things to do in the winter and all you really need are nice warm layers of clothes to enjoy them. One great activity for kids, adults and families is to build a snowman in your yard at the local park. Make a family of snowman, include a pet. Have a contest to see who can build the tallest one. Make sure you bring the snowman’s accessories or you’ll be lending your warm layers to your new snowy friend.

What other snowman ideas do you have? Be creative and think outside of the box! What’s really important is getting outside and enjoying the weather and nature. Winter isn’t an excuse to stay indoors, so get outside and play in the snow!

Once you’ve built your amazing snow sculpture, go back inside, get a nice cup of hot chocolate and enjoy Frosty the Snowman with your family. Perfect ending to a perfect day outside.
