Exciting At-Home Activities For all the Family this Winter

DNA Kids top tips for activities to keep your kids entertained this winter - Fantastic ways to stay busy and get creative in the warmth of your own home.

The time of year has come where Bonfire Nights, Fireworks and Christmas Markets are upon us, and although wrapping up in woolly coats with hot chocolates is all part of the winter spirit. We all know that by the end of the evening you and your children are frozen to the bone and mostly soaked through from the rain!

Preparing for a cold day ahead can be hard work! What with the number of layers of clothing you have to carry, because you just never know with our unpredictable British weather. There is also the temptation to stay in the warm on a Sunday in your pyjamas, rather than trudging outside in the bitter cold. But what will the kids want to do?

Fantastic ways to entertain the children!

The imagination of children is endless, and the main problem of boredom is because of their fantastic actively growing brains. However, this can be a problem over the winter due to the endless rainy days and being stuck in doors with limited supplies!

However, do not fear! There are some brilliant activities that you can do at home with your children that can lead to hours of fun.

Five Fun-Filled Activities for Kids!

Use 6-10 empty bottles as the pins and chose a large or small ball depending on how challenging you want it to be! Filling the bottles with water is useful to anchor them if they are too flimsy to use. This is an exciting activity that can involve the whole family whilst being in the comfort of your own home!
