Ice cube scavenger hunt
Using food coloring, freeze ice cubes of one color or of several different colors. Hide cubes in the snow in a designated area and let the children try to find them. (LOL)
Footprint tag
Play tag, stepping only in others’ footprints.
Light a fire in the snow
Using dry firewood and perhaps some barbeque starter, start a fire in an open area. If done in deep snow, children will be fascinated to see how the fire gradually sinks deeper and deeper.
Catching snowflakes
Place a black sheet of paper into a freezer until cold. Take outdoors and use a magnifying glass to view snowflakes that land on the paper.
Winter wildlife detectives
After a fresh snowfall, look for animal tracks and try to figure out which animal made the tracks.
Have a snowball fight!
Go Sledding!
Be creative!
Light candles and watch movies and drink hot cocoa!
3 hand prints:
That are some very creative games! We should try those!
I think I like the last one the best:
"Light candles and watch movies and drink hot cocoa!"
Amy, we can hardly light a fire when there isn't snow on the ground.
Even though it's a cool idea. It's like we're doomed to want things we don't have. Like awesome fire-starting abilities.
