We have had very little snow days this year…one (early November)? Maybe two? But the second one wasn’t even for snow…I think it was more about temperatures and ice? Anyway, on our most recent snow day (weeks ago) my kids became BORED because there was no real snow to go out and play in and sled on. So I gave the girls a Lego challenge – come up with something creative without instructions. They still wanted an idea. I told them “Just go create something! Anything! Make me!”

Thirty seconds later I was handed the Lego figure on the left. About 30 minutes later, I was handed the figure on the right. Andy and I are still not sure who was “the winner” in the situation. Both of them were pretty smart.

What do you tell your kids when they are bored?
