This Vegan Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese is cozy, healthy and delicious! It’s easy to make and so creamy even though there’s no dairy in it!

This Wintery Slime Activity is a great sensory activity for all kids because it’s safe, eco-friendly, and super easy! Oh, and it’s ooey-gewy and slimy, so kids love it too!
Every time I walk into Target with my kids, they immediately find the kid section and begin pleading for things: “please, please, please can we have this, well, what about that, okay, well please, please just let us have some slime. It’s just a little slime, mom!!” My answer has always been and will always be no.
Okay, I get it, kids! Slime is delightfully squishy and soft and oh, so fun to play with. But sorry guys, I’m just not as enthusiastic about all the chemical toxins in store-bought slime or the environmental impact of the slime and the one-use containers it’s stored in. I suggested that we make our own slime, and we made it out of Target without even a minor meltdown! Read on to learn how to make your own homemade wintery slime.

Painting the Snow is the perfect outdoor activity for kids to do during the cold, winter months. It’s simple, fun, and will get your kids outside and creating art for hours!
The week after Christmas, my kids began feeling really stir crazy and we needed something to do. It’s so much harder spending time outside when there’s snow on the ground and the weather is cold. We had already been sledding three times, gone on a few hikes, and even built a snowman. We needed a new outdoor winter activity! I suggested going out to play in the snow (again), and my daughter complained that she just wanted to stay inside and do art instead. “Well,” I asked her, “what if we take the art outside!?” And that’s when we came up with painting the snow!
