Entertaining Kids in Winter
Winter is the perfect time for kids and parents to explore new sports and foster more meaningful relationships with each other. From a casual stroll through the roads to a fun-filled game with children, winters offer the ideal opportunity for play. However, the same season can be dry and boring for children if parents don’t involve them in challenging and exciting activities. So, here we present a guide of 10 memorable winter activities for kids to keep them warm and entertained this winter season. Let’s jump in!
Winter Activities For Toddlers & Kids
Gather all your toddler’s favourite soft and wooden toys for these exciting fun activities. Ensure you have enough time for endless hours of winter merrymaking.
Wooden Sorting and Stacking Games
Sorting and stacking games are a great way to train brain cells in cold weather and enjoy quality time with friends and family. Games like the elephant stacking game, the beads maze toy game, and other sorting and stacking activity games make winters more fun and enriching for toddlers.
Winter Sports
Engage your kids in some challenging games like the Spin and Toss Ring Game for toddlers. This game will nurture their spatial awareness and build attention in little ones. Try playing other games like the wooden bowling game for the perfect entertainment time or the little golf set for mini golfers.
Cosy Storytime
Make bedtime more interesting for kids as you narrate some light-hearted stories from the Children's Storybooks. They are a traditional way to nurture listening habits in toddlers and foster their imagination. This also instills a love for reading from an early age. Try to pick more colourful and picture-intensive books to captivate children’s attention for longer periods.
Cooking and Baking Fun
Make your toddlers cook their favourite meals and dishes with the wooden role-play kitchen set. Take the BBQ Toy set for their best-ever grilling experience or the little play kitchen set for cooking endless delightful meals for them and their best friends.
Winter Treasure Hunt
Turn their play sessions into a mysterious treasure hunt by hiding their favourite toys under the tree or beneath the couch in the living room. Let them search every nook and corner of the house to regain their best soft and wooden toys. This winter treasure hunt is both exciting and physically stimulating for toddlers.
Puzzle Games
Just like the sorting and stacking games, the wooden puzzle games are perfect for enjoying simple games right under a cosy blanket with a hot cup of coffee or milk. With theme puzzles like the farm puzzle, animal puzzle, or vehicle puzzle games, there will be no moment of boredom while toddlers play these interesting puzzle games with fellow children.
Musical Contest
Let your tots host their very own musical night with their friends with the wooden musical set for babies. With colourful xylophones and a pair of maracas, your little rockstars can create endless tunes and make their fans go la-la.
Puppet Show with Soft Toys
Bring your toddler’s soft toy buddies together for the most awesome winter puppet show. With each soft toy playing its specific role, make your little ones giggle as they create different scenarios and make their soft toys act accordingly. Help your tots build exciting stories, but always let them lead. This ensures learning along with play.
Art and Craft Activities
A sketchbook with a colour palette is a child’s ultimate haven. Let them scribble and draw whatever they like. Let their creative juices flow and their imaginations widen as they paint their minds on that sheet of white paper. Out in the sun or under a warm blanket, children can paint endlessly wherever they want.
Winter Walk
One of the most underrated winter activities is a winter walk with friends and family. Nothing can beat the casual walks along the driveway or in the garden in the morning or evenings. Walking into the silence with your little ones is a soulful and memorable experience for both parents and children. This also makes children feel loved.
So, join your toddlers for this exciting winter experience with some challenging and soulful activities for hours of fun.
