Here are even more fun winter theme ideas for you - numbers 41 - 50!

41. Make your own puffy, snow paint by mixing equal parts of glue and shaving cream.

42. Build an igloo inside using empty milk jugs taped or glued together.

43. Pretend to be a snowman melting on a warm day.

44. Make a snowman snack using marshmallows, pretzel sticks, chocolate chips, and peanut butter (to hold them all together).

45. Make a winter white collage by cutting white objects out of magazines and gluing them on dark colored paper.

46. Hide a mitten in the room somewhere and let others try to find it. Give them clues by telling them whether they are 'hot' (near the mitten) or 'cold' (far from the mitten).

47. Write a poem or story about snow.

48. Blow up several white balloons and pretend they are snowballs! Toss them around, or try to build something with them (using tape).

49. Make snowflakes on cookies by placing a small doily on top of a cookie and sprinkling on some powdered sugar. This well for cakes also.

50. If you have slippery hardwood or tiled floors, pretend to ice skate in your stocking feet.
