Frugal Foodie Mama: 15 Fun Recipes for a Snow Day

From snowman-themed treats to homemade snow ice cream, make the most out of that next wintry day at home with these 15 Fun Recipes for a Snow Day...

Your cell phone dings, & you get the notification that your kids have been pining for all morning- school is cancelled for the day due to snow! Yay, a snow day!

You & your kiddos can just spend the morning snuggled up together with a cozy blanket on the couch & watch movies. Later on, you all will head outside for a little bit to build a snowman or have a snowball fight. You head back inside after wards with pink cheeks & noses and warm up with mugs of hot cocoa topped with marshmallows.

Reality check: This will be the snow day that ends up dragging into 2 or 3 or heaven helps us all, 4 or more days at home.

When you have heard for the umpteenth time about how bored your kids are (even though they probably have a mountain of toys & books to keep them occupied). And building that snowman isn't going to happen with temperatures in the lower 20's.

Now I am not saying that the snow day in scenario #1 is just a fantasy and can never happen. My kiddos & I have definitely enjoyed a snow day here & there that lived up to these idyllic expectations.

But in reality, snow days can sometimes make us cranky- both parents & kids alike.

While I don't possess the formula for a perfect snow day at home with your kids, I do have an arsenal of super fun, snow-themed recipes to share with you all today. Most of these recipes also happen to be kid-friendly making them great boredom busters for little hands...
