Snow Bucket List Activities
Are you dreaming of a white Christmas? I’ve never been a huge fan of the snow or cold but I do enjoy a good snow day for a bit and warming up by the fire with a big mug of hot cocoa. There are so many fun activities to do during a snow day.
Are you looking for some snow activity ideas to do this year with your family? Then look no further. I have compiled this list of fun, wintery snow activities to add to your Snow Bucket List!
Go Sledding
The first thing that comes to mind when I think of a snow day is sledding. Growing up this was my favorite activity when it snowed. On our family farm, we had hills and lots of fun places to go sledding. I have so many fun memories sledding in the wintertime. And I can’t wait to be able to take my kids sledding one day too.
Make a Snow Angel
Snow angels are one of the best snow activities! It is fun for kids (and adults) of all ages and you can easily make them even with little snow or snow that isn’t good enough to pack for a snowman. Whenever I am around snow I always make a snow angel!
Have a Snowball Fight
There is nothing like a good snowball fight. As a kid I used to love balling up snowballs and throwing them unexpectedly at my siblings. You can have a snowball fight with a couple of people or a big group and it’s just as fun either way.
Build a Snowman
“Do you want to build a snowman?” If there is snow, a snowman is a must! As a kid, I used to love whenever it would snow. As an adult, I’m not as big a fan of snow anymore but I do still enjoy it in moderation. My daughter experienced her first snow last year when she was just a baby and my son has yet to experience his first snow. We rarely get snow where we live in North Carolina but there is still something magical about when it does happen. Building a snowman is just the thing to do when it does snow!
Build an Igloo
If you have enough snow, building an igloo is something you must try. It doesn’t have to be perfect, half the fun is just building it. You could try different designs and have fun with it.
Catch Snowflakes on Your Tongue
One of my favorite things to do as a kid when it snowed was trying to catch snowflakes on my tongue. I still try it to this day whenever I’m where it snows.
Eat Snow Cream
Collect some of that fresh snow and take it inside to make your own snow cream (aka ice cream with snow). The perfect treat for a snowy day! You can find some recipes online on Google or Pinterest if you’ve never made it before. Play around and see what you like best.
Eat a Snow Cone
Why not take advantage of snow by collecting some and using it to make your very own snow cone? Just add some flavored syrup and ta-da your very own snow day treat with some free ingredients.
Make a Snow Craft
You can’t have bucket list without without crafts! There are so many fun options for snow-themed crafts. Paper snowflakes are a classic and so cute! You could also draw your own wintery scene.
Most people associate winter with snow and these are perfect activities for any snow day for everyone in the family!
