Winter Activities With Baby

With winter's dark cold days, it can be difficult to come up with a variety of fun activities to do with baby. If you are in need of a little inspiration, check out these ideas below.

Sledding

If you happen to live somewhere with snow, sledding is a great activity for any age. Even if baby isn't big enough yet to head down the slope, they will enjoy being pulled around in a sled experiencing the winter wonderland for the first time.

Family Movie Night

Go all out for this night and build a fort to watch the movie from. Venture out and watch a movie no one has seen before. Make sure you have popcorn at the ready and settle in for a relaxing night.Christmas Light Stroll

Before the lights are taken down for the season make sure you take baby to stroll or drive through the neighborhoods in town that spare no expense in holiday cheer. The colorful lights will be sure to stimulate baby's interest and bring a smile to their rosy cheeks.

Cotton Ball Crafts

With very minimal supplies you can create countless adorable winter crafts. Use a glue stick and some cotton balls to bring Frosty to life on a piece of construction paper. Don't forget to add in some googly eyes, buttons, scarf, and hat. For a challenge try creating a penguin!

Ice Painting

Using frozen colored water let baby paint away, exploring colors and igniting their inner Picasso. Check out how to make these chilly yet safe ice paints here.
