Some of my favorite things to do is to make snow sculptures - make spray chalk for snow - make snow forts - do winter dressing sequncing then play dressing games like winter dressing relays. At Christmas I like to play a game where we put small candycanes into a large tub of Styrofoam packing peanuts and then have the children wear really big mitts and try to dig down in the packing peanuts to get a candycane - done as a team relay race. We do mitten matching & sorting activities. Do outdoor freezing science experiments! Shaving cream snow pictures. Yogurt bottle snowmen. Plus there are many more - I could go on but please add some in for us if you have any ideas of your own!
