Any Mama with a toddler knows our kiddos need variety! And being stuck in the house during a major blizzard – bye Jonas – doesn’t help.
But if we’ve learned anything over this past week in my house, it’s creative play to the rescue.
Here are a few of our favorite snow day / cold weather activities:
Finger Painting & Water Colors – Most kids love to make stuff, and get their hands dirty, right? Break out the finger paints and water colors.
You can use this activity to teach your kiddo how to identify a variety of colors, complete a project from start to finish, and work on a team!

Sand Play – Think warm thoughts, right?
Yes. I say this to myself a lot these days (as this is not my fav. season). Nothing brings summer within reach faster than playing with sand.
A few weeks ago we headed up to Lakeshore Learning and picked up an awesome sensory sand play set for Nai. This moldable soft sand comes with mini castles and tools so kids can build their own village.
This is such a fun and low-key way to work on those fine motor skills. You can also buy sand in numerous colors at Lakeshore so this hands-on-activity never becomes old!

Water Play – Grab a small bucket, fill it with water, and let your little one choose which toys should go for a swim!
You can even add shaving cream in the mix for more of a sensory experience; its another cool way to let kids experiment with touching various textures.
I hope you all are enjoying your little ones this winter!
What fun activities do you all do when it’s to cold to head out?
