For those cold winter days, why not try out pizza recipes? It is an enjoyable activity as most kids love pizza. Inexpensive and easy to try. You can purchase all of the ingredients. Embrace the opportunity of making the activity a fun challenge by making the dough from scratch.
Movie marathons
Bring out the blankets! On those snowy days, there’s nothing better than curling up with blankets on the couch and watching movies. Let your kids choose the movies they like and binge-watch together. This is a great way to bond with them and find out more about their likes. To make it extra special, you can make theatre snacks like popcorn, cookies, pretzels and hot chocolate.
