Snow Day Ideas

20 Snow Day Ideas on Frugal Coupon Living

We recently moved from Florida to the DC area and snow is new to us. Other than building the snowmen, making a snow angel and sledding down a hill, I wanted to find alternative ways for my kids to have fun in this odd, little white substance. Take a look at these 20 Uses for Snow to have a list of Snow Day Ideas on your next school day off!

Also see our Winter Hacks and Tips.


How to Make An Igloo

Have fun making an ice castle with step by step tutorial, how to make an igloo out of snow.

Photo directions of How to Make An Igloo using ice blocks

This outdoor igloo with ice blocks took about 3 days and a lot of patience. It also used about 40 meatloaf pans (just grab at the Dollar Store or your local grocery store.) Lay out your pans with water and a few drops of food coloring. Once the ice hardens, pop the ice out of the pans and form your igloo shape.

Once you get the shape of your ice igloo, fill in the cracks with snow. Continue to make molds, let the harden and add more ice bricks to your igloo. Keep adding snow in the racks as your cement. Repeat the process until you have an igloo made out of snow and ice. When you are finish, add alight inside at night for a magic light display.
