This is the first year that my 2 1/2 yr old is really old enough to appreciate playing in the snow. A couple of weekends ago when we had pretty deep snowfall she had an absolute blast with our neighbor who is about her age. And, I have to say, I wish I had a snowsuit too because I was right down in the snow playing with her!
This weekend the Chicago Park District is hosting another great- and free-event for the whole family. Northerly Island will be hosting the Polar Adventure days from 12-4 and will have ice sculpture demonstrations, live animals, winter crafts, hot cocoa and more. Sophia and I will be there–say hi if you see us! Details and directions here.
