Banish the Winter Blahs With Family Fun!


Make a Snowsquirrel!
Spring is on the wing, but here in Wisconsin we're still in the heart of Winter with snow in the forecast for the weekend!

Now is not the time to hole up in front of the TV! Get active and kick the winter blahs with these ideas that will get you and your family off of the couch and onto the trails!
  • Build a snow sculpture - try a snowman, snowbear, snowsquirrel or build a fort!  Not only will you and your kids have a blast creating the snow art, but you will all get a great workout as well!

  • Make a snow painting! Mix food coloring, water and a spray bottle to make snow paint and use your imagination to paint an outdoor masterpiece, or paint your snowman bright colors!

  •  Start a family Weekly Winter Walk! Pick a day each week to hike through the snow together - a great way to enjoy nature and one another!

  • Try animal tracking - here are some common tracks to get you started:

    Tracking Fun for the Whole Family!
