Snow! Snow! Snow!
I have been trapped inside with my son since Tuesday afternoon. So what am I doing to keep my sanity? I escape to my computer, while he destroys the house. Actually I'm lucky to be withing walking distance of my in-laws. And they were wonderful and let us stay with them. I was able to pawn my son off on my mother-in-law and take a break. But we did partake in fun snow day activities.
1. Drawing - My son is getting into the whole crayon/paper freestyling. It's fun and I got to walk him through step-by-step a puppy how-to.
2. Hot Chocolate - Who doesn't want a great cup of hot chocolate on a snow day? We had Stone Cold Creamery hot chocolate. It was the best I've had in a while. Delicious.
3. Board Games - I taught my son, mother-in-law, and husband how to play Candyland. It was fun, but did test my patience.
4. Pictures - We took pictures of the snow through the windows and of my son being goofy.
Husband and father-in-law worked all day on clear the driveway and getting vehicles unstuck. Success was partial seeing as how they got the vehicles freed but I am still home bound.
For a snow day it wasn't bad. However I don't see us being freed anytime soon.
How do you keep kids entertained when you're trapped indoors?
