It's time for some winter fun. If your kids are getting a
little weary of the long winter days, try some of these fun activities that
will guarantee to bring laughter and make some fun family memories.
Feeding the Birds
During winter it can be hard for birds and small animals to
find food. Make some fun bird food crafts to hang in your trees.
Orange Bird feeder
Scoop out a couple oranges (make some fresh-squeezed juice)
and fill them will bird seed. If you have snow, pack some snow in there as
well. Tie some ribbon through and hang them in the trees and watch the birds
appear.
Cookie Cutter Birdseed Ornaments
Get some clear gelatin and follow instructions, mix in
birdseed until thick and then scoop into cookie cutter shapes. Stick at straw
in so that you can later pull a string through. Put them in the freezer for a
couple hours, and then hang them in the trees.
Blizzard Bottles
Go through your recycling bin and get some empty clear bottles. Fill them up halfway with corn syrup, the other half with water. Add some glitter then seal up the bottle. Use duct tape or hot glue the lid so it won't come off. Start shaking and watch the blizzard in the bottles. Try making them in different sizes and use different glitter colors.
Frozen Snow Munch

Add some blue sprinkles to make it look like ice!
Snow Dough
This is so fun and easy. Tear up a roll of toilet paper into
small pieces. Take a bar of Ivory Soap and microwave it for 1 minute, then add
the soap to the toilet paper. Add a little bit of water. Snow for all!
Have some great family fun this winter!
