We have started to get a little bit of snow here in northern Michigan. The perfect time to remind everyone of some of the GREAT LEARNING fun that can happen in the winter time snow!
Children love to experience the weather, and the various seasons.
All weather is perfect for outdoor fun and exploration provided you have the proper clothing!

| Snow provides a perfect opportunity for children to engage in real work. Having child sized snow removal equipment like shovels and "Yooper Scoopers" assist in their ability to explore and contribute. |
Did you know that if the weather is cold enough, you can make your own snow?
Did you know that you can also make bubbles freeze? (And you thought that bubbles were for the summer time!)
Sledding is one of our all time favorite things to do:
With all of the wintery white, we like to add a bit of color!
Check out all of the ways that you can paint the snow!
We also love to build forts....
Sometimes we like to investigate our footprints and make other kinds of tracks in the snow!
What is your favorite thing to do in the winter snow?

Wonderful photos. Looks like so much fun. We don't get that much snow in Texas but we sure had fun in it when we lived in Kansas. Pinning it.
