Colder weather means the kids won't be outside as much as they usually are. Here are a few ideas for keeping them occupied indoors.
- Race around the house. My girls and I have been doing this for the past 2 days, and all three of them just love having me running with them. (Let me tell you, that is a sight to behold, and I'm definitely getting some much-needed exercise!)
- Have an indoor marshmallow roast. Put mini marshmallows on skewers and let your child roast them over a candle.
- Make a fort or tent out of sheets or blankets. Join your kids inside.
- Read to your child. If you already do this as part of your regular routine, think about letting him choose a couple more books than normal.
- Help your child put a puzzle together.
- Make homemade hot chocolate mix and enjoy a cup with your child.
- Work with your child on a special craft.
- Help your child make a special gift for someone.
- Line up all the chairs from the kitchen table and play train, letting your child be the engineer.
