We love going to baby groups and meeting other mums, keeping busy and active is really helping beat the January blues, a walk around the block after lunch breaks up the day and sometimes we bump into people and have a little chat :) then home for a afternoon nap if I’m lucky, roll on spring!

We love wrapping up, packing some porridge oats and walking around our local lake feeding the birds and squirrels as we go. It’s great stimulation and eye tracking for my son and he loves all the noises.

Curled up on the sofa watching a film with some snacks and then off to bed for a bedtime story and cuddle

Our winter activity is quite different, our baby was born 3 months early in December so she’s still in nicu. Our activity is going to nicu daily to feed her change her nappy.
Not same to everyone’s activity.

I love to get all snuggled up under a cosy blanket and read endless stories with my little one! Perfect way to keep warm and entertained

My favourite activity is baking cookies then snuggling up on the sofa under a ‘cosy blanket’ and watching one of our favourite films. I’m currently 9 months pregnant so there have been lots of films and lots of cookies!

We love wrapping up warm and going in the pram for long wintery walks then going on the swings at the end

With the weather being cold it’ll be an indoor game and fun so some carts or snuggling up to a movie. If the weather permits we can walk around the park and stopping at the playground for some swings and slides.

We make fake indoor snow using cornflower, bicarbonate of soda and water! Our little girl loves it! And then we provide cookie cutters to make snow shapes. Great for sensory play and exploring new textures. To make your own ...

You will need
Tray or bowl
Cornflour
Bicarbonate of soda
Water

Method

1. In a bowl, mix together equal quantities of cornflour and bicarbonate of soda. With this simple 1:1 ratio, you’ll be able to make as much or as little fake snow as you like. We started with 250g cornflour and 250g bicarbonate of soda.

2. Once combined, gradually introduce a very small amount of water into the bowl and mix together with your hands. Add a little more water – just a few drops at a time – until you reach a good consistency.

3. Stop adding water when the mixture starts to hold its own shape, but crumbles when pressed (like snow). We used just 1½ tbsp water in total for the amounts above.

4. Now you’re ready to play!

On wintry days, we like to wrap up warm and head to the park or outside for a jolly walk. My 3 1/2 year old and 10 month old love the swings. We love puddle jumping like Peppa Pig.
If it’s a bit too wet we like to stay inside in the warmth and get the Play-Doh out or our new favourite are ‘squishy‘s’ which you mould into anything you like, they then dry soft but bendy and hold the shape and design you made.
My daughter who is 3 1/2 and I love baking together and can usually be found baking banana muffins or gingerbread men.
We also just love the kind of wintry day where we snuggle under a duvet on the sofa and watch frozen.

On cold winter days we like to get wrapped up in our pram and go for a walk to the park! We take our big brother with us and he makes us laugh doing silly things along the way. We have a little go on the swings (if the seats not too wet) then head to our local playgroup where we have fun playing with our friends and different toys to what we have at home 🤗 we have just bought a sledge so fingers crossed for some snow soon 🤞🏼

ii_marrie • 01/02/2022 - 10:55

We love snuggling up with our feet up, pampers nappie on, hot coco and milk in on hand all wrapped up in a warm cosy blanket watching cartoons and eating yummy snacks on cold wintery days.

Recently me and Ruby have been taking walks round the park while taking our favourite doggy (my Nan’s dog Poppy) for a walk ❤️ Tested Ruby out on the swings for the first time but she wasn’t overly keen. Maybe when she’s a bit older x

Den building! Little ones love it, and it's a chance to play peekaboo, get close and snuggled up, or play around, with tickles and giggles. They also love it because you are down at their level too. It's free and easy to do! My favourite is to pop a blanket over a couple of chairs, but you could use cardboard boxes, string lights for decor, and even pop some books in and use a den as a reading nook. Then quickly tidy away when it's nap time.

We love to have a sensory morning when it’s cold outside. We get out the silver foil blanket and light up toys with sensory blocks and make a little den that we can watch all the lights reflect off the blanket whilst feeling the different textures of the toys. Ideal for little babies senses on a cold and dark morning!
