*** This is a throw-back post from winter 2015-2016. To mainly remind you of the fun things to do indoors whether on a rainy, cold, or snowy day.

Christmas in our house seemed to go by, just as fast as it came. With that, we currently have a promise of another post-Christmas Blizzard.

They are predicting 8+ inches of snow in SW Minnesota.  I don’t know about you, but sometimes we get a case of a little cabin fever in our little farm house. Here is a list of 5 ideas to help beat the cabin fever, or prevent the “I’m bored” during Christmas Break.

 

With every snowstorm (or forecast of one in SW Minnesota) will bring a new edition of the snow day fun. Any guess to how many editions we will get this 2015-2016 winter?
