It is so easy to fall into a winter rut, with cold temperatures and snow, getting out and about sometimes seems like a whole lot of effort! But, this winter my family has vowed to break out of the rut and enjoy ourselves!
This year we are getting out, getting active and making even the most mundane winter day into an adventure! There will be no hibernating this year because we have memories to make!
One of my favorite ways to get the kids out and about in the winter is to encourage a winter wildlife scavenger hunt! A quick google search can tell you what types of animals you are likely to see in the colder months where you live, and a couple of bottles of Fruit Shoot® can fuel the kids on the adventure!
We live in South Carolina, so we jotted down a list of animals you are likely to see in the winter in our area. We were looking for crows, deer, squirrels, rabbits, weasels, skunks, ruffed grouse, winter finch, and geese.
We didn’t find all of the animals. We saw no weasels or winter finch but we did find the others and we worked up an appetite! Since the boys always want pizza, we wrapped up our winter wildlife scavenger hunt at Pizza Hut. The boys were happy to see they could order Fruit Shoot drinks there and I felt good about their drink orders.
