What do you do on a SNOW DAY?

This winter has already brought lots of snow, two snow days and a 2-hour delay.  And a look at the forecast says we are not done yet!

My son, Noah, leads the way.

While constant interruptions to our schedule and curriculum can be challenging, they also give us a chance to try something new.

On Friday, after the snow stopped, my son, Noah, introduced me to the joys of snowshoeing.  We are fortunate to live near conservation land where the combination of forest and meadow create beautiful scenes whether walking, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing.  Our family has also used the two snow days thus far this year to learn play much-loved board games and learn new ones as well as put together jigsaw puzzles in 2- and 3-D.

How has your family used the snow days?
