Snow is the best toy in the world! It is soft, refreshing, you can throw it and slide on it. Let's play with it while it's beautiful!
Snowman
The first activity children think of when they see snow is the famous snowman. Bring a scarf, pine cones, a carrot, a hat and a broom, and make a handsome man in a good mood. As the storms pass, you can make them of all sizes and place them in funny situations.
Battle
A good snowball fight is always much appreciated. You can craft one ball at a time and race around the house or prepare two mountains of balls to have enough ammo and face off in a memorable battle.
Strong
Building a fort is one of the great pleasures of winter! You can build a small or a large one, and even put some light in it! We have a full article on building forts so read it, and get ready to build!
Swipe
We are lucky to haveso many places to slide! The playground, parks, outdoor centers and ski centers are all places for children to slide with sleds, three-skis, crazy carpets or even on the buttocks! The important thing is to find a slope where there is a little smooth crust, and you're done!
Following tracks
Is that a cat? A squirrel? Father? Follow the tracks in the snow and try to find the author!
Making angels
Lying down in the snow and watching the snowflakes descend towards you is a moment of great happiness for everyone. To make an angel, now just wave your arms and legs. Once your angel is done, you can even color its wings with a spray bottle and some colored water.
Cross-country skiing
cross-country skiing is practiced in several parks and in any forest. The trick to being really comfortable is to dress in layers because you will quickly get very hot. It is a wonderful activity to discover snowy and uncrowded places.
Racket
Going snowshoeing is another way to experience nature! Take poles, a good pair of snowshoes and go on an adventure!
Alpine Skiing and Snowboarding
Feeling the wind and the sun on your face while hurtling down the slopesis a unique feeling! If you don't know how to ski, take the time to learn and do it at least once. The slopes are there, the snow too and the landscape you will be treated to before descending will make the whole family want to get back on the ski lift as soon as possible!
Watch the snowflakes
Taking the time to observe the snowflakes is also a great activity when the snow is falling gently and it is not too cold. You can even catch a few with your tongue and build a snow lounger for extra comfort!
