f your grandkids are like most, weekends and school
snow closings are the highlight of the winter season.
Get into the spirit with some of these fun outdoor
activities. After you've expended your energy outdoors,

Take a snowshoe hike. Buy or borrow snowshoes
for the family, and go on a trek through the woods or

strips of fabric to tree branches to mark
