When the winter season rolls around, we generally put on our lazy cap and hibernate because we are under the impression that snow = no fun activities. Don’t let the chilly weather stop you from having a blast this season!
Here are 5 must-try winter activities that will keep the fun going all year round. Plus, enter to win a $25 Visa gift card to get started!
This is the best way to balance between hot and cold temperatures. While the water keeps your body warm, the cool air gives that relaxing effect. Perfect for a romantic date or a girls’ night out, especially while sipping on a glass of wine!
You can never go wrong with a fun photoshoot! This is a great way to get priceless photos of your kids as well as add content to your social media accounts and/or blog. Grab your girlfriends, family, or significant other to capture those special moments!
If it really is too much to go outside, bring out your inner creative self by building an indoor fort. Take creative control and design a cozy space where you can watch a movie and enjoy delicious snacks with the people you love most. A great way to stay indoors during this chilly season!
One of the coolest winter destinations! Though there are only a few Ice Castle locations across the United States, it's worth it to plan a road trip to see one. Or check out if your town has similar activities such as sculpture carving or ice skating shows. If not, create your own sculpting project in your own backyard.
Yes, you read that correctly. Ziplining isn’t just for the warmer seasons; it’s a great way to feel that sense of adventure all year long. Without buzzing insects, this activity is ten times more fun, even in the cold. Check out winter resorts and family ski or tubbing parks. There are more ziplining locations open during the winter than you may realize.

Living in Arizona, our favorite way to spend "winter" is to be outside. We tend to hibernate come summertime so once the weather cools, it's the best time to hike and do outside projects!
I enjoy indoor games during the winter! I also like enjoy eating hot soups any time of the day.
My favorite winter activity is reading on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and a fire in the fireplace.
Snow Shoeing!
I am in the South so we don't see much snow so I love to create fun ideas for inside like having hot chocolate while watching a movie.
I love long walks with my dog in the winter. She pounces through snow drifts and loves the snow.
