Anyone who knows me most likely knows I am NOT a fan of winter!!!!! Actually, it is really just the driving that I hate in the winter!! I like doing other activities like going for walks, geocaching, and I don't even mind shoveling. If it is nice enough to play with the little monkeys, you bet we are going to be outside!!!
We had tons of fun outside with all the toys and the pool, and water toys in the summer, but the snow is different and like having a new thing to play with. The little ones are excited all over again, when we get to play outside in the snow. They like just walking through it and playing with the toys in it. Most of the time they don't even realize that they are getting cold because they are loving the snow so much. For a few of them, I have to remind them that it is important to wear their toques and mitts when we are inside getting ready but once we get outside they forget about all the layers and extra clothing and just enjoy playing outside. Sometimes they could play outside almost as long as we did in the summer. I can't wait to do more things with them like making snow angels and snowpeople. I am going to invest in some more outdoor shovels and pails and toys like that. Right now they are still in that new phase where the snow is just something new to play with and fun as it is but the further into winter we go the more I will look for and share ideas we try, like snow paint or homemade ornaments. I actually can't believe that I am even a little excited to spend the winter playing outside with my little monkeys!!!
