Cheap Thrills — Indoor Blizzard!

For a fun time, create your own magical indoor blizzard!! ((Snowflakes cut from coffee filters.)) We had lots of FUN playing in the mountains of snow (pillows with a white comforter on top), and it was a great way for Clara to burn off some extra energy!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!

Be sure to build a snow fort…

….and have a little snowball fight!

Heads-up!!

I think we’ll need to warm up with a little hot chocolate, don’t you?

Have fun!!

    Dear Valerie,

    I can already predict that I will find snowflakes in the bedroom for weeks.

    Love,
    Mark

    This is a much WARMER way to enjoy the snow…in fact, I think after all that jumping, you’ll need a tall glass of cold chocolate milk, not hot chocolate! :0)

    I bet you had so much fun with that. Now I have to think if we have a white blanket.
