Hey friends! If you’ve ever been hit with a surprise snow day, you know the struggle—kids bouncing off the walls, constant snack requests, and the temptation to just hand over the iPad. But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered!In today’s episode, we’re talking about simple ways to keep your kiddos entertained without screens. I’ll share my go-to strategies, including setting up a Snow Day Preparation Station (trust me, this is a game-changer!), repurposing unopened holiday gifts, and pulling out old-school fun like dance parties, puzzles, and even car games (yes, they totally work indoors too!).

We’ll also chat about why planning ahead can make snow days way less stressful and more enjoyable for everyone. Because let’s be real—if we’re going to be snowed in, we might as well make the most of it, right?

Key Takeaways:
❄️ How to set up a Snow Day Preparation Station with minimal effort
🎨 Fun, hands-on activities to keep kids engaged (without defaulting to screens)
📦 The magic of repurposing unopened holiday gifts
🎶 Why a spontaneous dance party might be your best tool for survival
