Baby It's Cold Outside....

And 70% of you voted to stay inside when it gets cold. You really are our kind of people! 😂

The snow is "ick" to lots of us but it seems to get the kids excited for the holidays. (what's up with that?!) These holidays can be fun for parents, but they can also be stressful. All the planning and the shopping and the memories to be made - ahhhh!! So, we decided to compile a list of activities you can do that take a moment to click, connect, and participate in!! These fun and interactive ideas will keep your kids busy long enough for you to sit and enjoy a coffee, or participate with minimal effort output (aka. prep and planning).

Our #1 go-to is obvious.... 🥁  It's the ultimate snacktivity - a Colouring Cookie!!

Here's where to use them:

🏀 Hanging out in the stands this weekend? Colouring cookies!
🛷 Going sledding? Colouring cookies!
🏔 Hiking in the snow and need a snack? Colouring cookies!
🍪  Cookie decorating day and you forgot you're hosting? Colouring cookies!
🛋 Laying on the couch? Colouring cookies!

Here's how to use them: Open. Colour. Eat. Repeat.

We do enjoy other activities as well. Check out the below listed options in Edmonton and ares. And since the majority of you voted on staying in (Instagram poll), we're leading with inside activities:
