Fun Indoor Actives For the Winter
What to do if it is too cold to go outside? Here are a few ideas to help get you through the winter months!
Cook Together
They can help you from being in a highchair pulled up to the table to standing on a stool next to the counter helping you. This is the perfect time to explore different scents. Have them smell each spice before you add it to your dish.
Make Some Music Together
Break out any musical instruments you have laying around or use pots and pans and some wooden spoons! You can turn on one of their favorite CD's or have you join in playing a musical instrument if you happen to play.
Snuggle Up and Read Together
Grab one of their favorite books and read together by a fire, under a cozy blanket or just on a chair cuddled up.
Get Crafty
Crafts are a great way to get everyone involved and to see some unique artwork. Don't forget to display, so friends and family can see the amazing work!
Indoor Games
Indoor games are a great way to get some energy out. Your children can even help you create the game. Don't worry, no need to go out and buy things, get creative and use things around the house!
Make Nape Time Interesting
Change up the nap time routine by building a fort. Use pillows and sheets and together you can create an awesome fort. Don't forget to let the kiddos help build; building may tire them out!
Movie Time
Snuggle up on the couch and watch a good movie. Take turns letting the kids choose the movie of their choice. Make sure you bring the popcorn and hot cocoa!
This time of year can be tough. Transitioning from being able to go outside to being stuck in the house. Hope you enjoy these great ideas to help ease the transitioning woes, and keep those kiddos happy!
