Winter outdoor activities (лексика для более старших деток, но почему бы нам ее не освоить сейчас)
Before heading outside, make sure that your kids are bundled up to be warm. You should bundle up too. Be sure to wear gloves, coats and warm socks, along with weather-appropriate footwear.
Build a snowman
Do you remember rolling the snow into balls to create three parts for a special snowman? It was a lot of fun!
Bubble time
You might associate blowing bubbles with sundresses, bare feet and green grass. But in the winter time, it takes on a whole new (and fun!) dimension.
Shoveling help
It goes without saying that shoveling snow is hard work. It's also awesome exercise - even for kids. Pick up a kid-sized shovel and have them help out by clearing a path in the snow, or digging to make fun patterns. walks!
Geocaching
The mere mention of the word 'treasure' is guaranteed to light up kids' eyes. So, why not take them on a real-life treasure hunt with geocaching?
Look for animal tracks
Whenever it snows, it sets the stage for an ultra-fun family activity: Tracking animals. Grab a camera and your kids and check out the animal tracks in your freshly fallen snow. Take photos too, so you can compare them to photos of animal tracks later.
Flashlight tag
Love the game of tag? Flashlight tag is like the fun classic game, except players tag each other with beams of light, instead of hands.
