Winter Ideas For Kids
Now that winter has settled in, it’s the perfect time to do indoor activities with the kids. We have a variety of crafts and activities that will keep your kids engaged and having fun. Keep reading below for more ideas your kids will love to do this winter!
Winter Books For Kids
As any parent knows, reading to your kids is a great way to promote their literacy skills. But did you know that reading aloud to them can also help them in other ways?
Reading aloud helps to build bonding between parent and child. So the next time you’re looking for a way to connect with your little ones, try cuddling up with a good book! You’ll be doing them (and yourself) a world of good.
Below are some of our favorite winter-themed books.
The Biggest Snowman Ever – When the mayor of Mouseville announces the town snowman contest, Clayton and Desmond claim that they will each make the biggest snowman ever.
The Snowy Day – This story shows a child’s wonder at a new world and the hope of capturing and keeping that wonder forever.
Sneezy The Snowman– Sneezy is COLD! And he’s trying to warm up without success. But, the kids know exactly how to help him!
Winter Crafts For Kids
Crafting is a great activity any time of year, but we especially love it during the winter when the kids are cooped up indoors and need to keep their hands and minds active.
Crafting not only keeps them busy and entertained, but will also hone skills such as critical thinking, fine motor skills, and creativity.
Crafting is a great way for kids to express themselves and adapt the project to be how they envision it. When they’re able to do this, it fosters their creativity and builds their self-confidence.
Walrus Arctic Animal Craft – We’re going on an expedition to see our arctic friend peeking out of the water! This fun paper craft comes with a free template so all you have to do is print, and the kids can get to cutting out the pieces and gluing them in place to reveal a walrus right at home!
Handprint Snowy Owl Craft – Whooo loves handprint crafts?! We do. This snowy owl will be ready for flight when your little ones lend a hand to create wings for them! The kids will love to learn about these amazing winter animals when they complete this craft!
Puffy Paint Snowman – Build a snowman by combining two projects in one! First, the kids will make puffy paint and then use it to paint their own snowman. The snowman has a really cool 3d look since the paint is puffy! The kids will dress their snowman by adding some classic snowman apparel!
Paper Plate Penguin Craft – The kids will be waddling like penguins after learning about these adorable winter animals! This is a simple and cute craft because it uses an everyday item – the paper plate. Grab the template so the kids can dive right in!
