Winter is with us for at least a few more months so rather
than hibernate watching TV or playing video games why not try some other
activities to keep you active.
With all the snow left over from the storms of the last two
weeks it is time to break out your sled or toboggan and go for a ride! Hills
don’t have to be gigantic for this to be fun. Go to your local park with the
whole family and go for a slide down a snowy hill. Mom, dad, brothers, sisters
and the family dog will all have a great time. Remember to dress warmly with
good waterproof boots to keep your toes nice and toasty warm.

If sledding isn’t your thing maybe a pair of ice skates is
more your style. Whether you glide along like an Olympic skater or
struggle to
stay on your feet, ice-skating is a lot of fun and great exercise. Many places
rent skates inexpensively if you don’t have your own pair so go out there and
give it a try. I promise many LOL moments will follow. |

In the south there isn’t much snow or ice to be found. There
are tons of hiking trails to explore. Even trails you’re familiar with can be
new and exciting as migrating birds fly south for the winter so you can see all
different kinds of birds.

On the beach the tides change and you can find tons more
shells than in the summer. On a cold day you’ll find you have the beach to
yourself to explore and discover.
Stay active, warm and healthy this winter!
