\"Let<\/p>\n

Our family decided to take an Early American history tour this winter, so we’ve spent the better part of January on the East Coast. Our travels put us in northern Virginia when “historic blizzard” Juno hit New England.<\/p>\n

\"Let<\/p>\n

We were far enough north that we got a little snow, but not so far that the driving was any more treacherous that usual.<\/p>\n

\"Let<\/p>\n

But the views have been lovely! It’s been years since we’ve seen that much snow at home.<\/p>\n

\"Let<\/p>\n

We get snow so infrequently in Texas, in fact, that we celebrate anytime it shows up. Here are some of our family’s favorite ways to make snow days memorable.<\/p>\n

9 Fun Things to Do When It Snows:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Take lots of pictures<\/h2>\n

    … especially when the snow is new and undisturbed. Tiptoe around from the back, so your footprints won\u2019t show.<\/li>\n

    \"Let<\/p>\n

  2. \n

    Go sledding<\/h2>\n

    Cookie sheets, pieces of cardboard, and skateboards with the wheels removed make good makeshift sleds in a pinch.<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Bundle up warm and take a walk<\/h2>\n

    Go as a family. Hold hands and don\u2019t fall!<\/li>\n

    \"Let<\/p>\n

  4. \n

    Build a snowman<\/h2>\n

    Better yet, make a whole family of snowmen!<\/li>\n

  5. \n

    Stage a snowball fight<\/h2>\n

    Divide into teams: Girls against the boys? Mom and Dad against the kids? But don’t forget the first rule of combat… no throwing snow in other\u2019s faces!<\/li>\n

    \"Let<\/p>\n

  6. \n

    Make snow ice cream<\/h2>\n

    Gather clean snow in a bowl and top with a mixture of 1 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon vanilla, and 2 cups of milk (plain or chocolate). Yum!<\/li>\n

  7. \n

    Put blankets in the dryer before going outdoors<\/h2>\n

    When you come back in, you can wrap up in them and get warm fast. My mother always had a warm, fluffy blanket ready for me whenever I came in from playing in the snow as a young girl. I loved it — and I loved her for thinking ahead!<\/li>\n

    \"Let<\/p>\n

  8. \n

    Build a roaring fire in the fireplace<\/h2>\n

    Relax around it for story time, once you are all exhausted from play.<\/li>\n

  9. \n

    Tank up on something warm<\/h2>\n

    Drink plenty of hot cocoa or steaming apple cider to warm yourself from the inside out.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
