We all need easy and fun activities to beat the winter blues. Winter can be so difficult for kids and parents alike. And we are in the heart of the season as we speak. February is often the most difficult winter month. It’s definitely the coldest and dreariest. You can do these activities to shake things up and fight the winter blues<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s time to let go and get out the paint and the glitter. That’s right; I said it. Get out the glitter.<\/strong> Pulling out the messy arts and crafts will feel special and exciting for your kids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n My middle child made a rainbow tree FULL of glitter the other day. She was so proud of her creation. Yes, there was a messy table to clean up, but seeing her joy made up for it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It also gave me an opportunity to teach her how to clean up messy crafts properly. This means that she can be more independent next time with her activity. The more independent my kids can be with clean-up, the more likely I am to say yes to messy crafts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Obstacle Courses are great activities to beat the winter blues; there’s a good reason for that.<\/strong> They are a lot of fun, and they provide a lot of gross motor movement in small spaces. But honestly, often, kids will only do them for a short while. <\/p>\n\n\n\nGet Messy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
