The best course of action is to stay warm and cozy inside while it snows and blows outside. Your kids might be content with this for a while…especially if they get to take the day off from school! Eventually, however, you are bound to hear those two dreaded words: “I’m bored!”

Don’t just sit your kids in front of the TV or the computer for hours on end. There are plenty of fun snow day activities that allow your kids to stay actively involved, exercise their minds, and bond together as a family. With a little help from Current’s extensive catalog of indoor games, you can turn an ordinary snow day into one of life’s special moments.

Here are five great snow day activities!

Jigsaw Puzzles – From holiday themes to animals to fairy princesses, today’s jigsaw puzzles have something for everybody. Don’t have time to finish a whole puzzle in one sitting? Don’t worry! If you put your puzzle together on Current’s special jigsaw puzzle mat, you can easily roll-up your unfinished work to move and store it for later.
