funny things to do this winter

One of the winter classics, building a snowman takes just some packable snow and a few accessories usually available in your home.

If the snow load was generous enough, you can also try to build an igloo. Use a plastic bin to form your snow bricks and stack the blocks one upon another around a circle plan. Dont forget to leave an opening for the entrance.

Another popular winter activity, snowball fights are always fun to have. Just make sure its not too hard (snowballs can hurt).

If there is a snowcovered hill in your neighborhood, you can enjoy all possible and impossible types of downhill fun. If you dont have a sled, use a tough plastic bag.

Find a patch of deep fresh snow, lay down on it and imprint your body parts on the snow while moving your straight arms back and forth.

Find a frozen pond, remove the upper snow layer, polish it with a piece of cloth and enjoy some nice sliding. If the ice is really smooth, you can travel impressive distances just on the soles of your boots.

By feeding the birds during the winter season, you can kill two birds with one stone (pun unintended). First, you get the little hungry guys some food which will help them survive the winter and second, watching the birds being fed will keep your kids entertained.

Go to a frozen lake or pond and drill a hole in the ice for the fish to breathe.

A bonfire in winter can help create a romantic winter atmosphere while keeping everybody warm. Its also the perfect opportunity for smores

If you live in a region where dogsled races are held, make sure to attend one. Watching the shaggy dogs dashing across a snowblanketed landscape is an amazing experience.
