8 Traditional Winter Must Do's

Winter can get pretty dull but don't let that stop you from going out or staying in and having fun! These winter activities and a must since winter only comes around once a year! Here are my favorite eight things to do when the snow comes!

1. Build a snowman

Grab a couple friends or your significant other and get out there! Take a carrot, some buttons, and an old scarf! This is a must do, small or large.

2. Ice skate

Of course this is so cliche, but at the same time extremely fun! I mean who doesn't love struggling on ice skates with your friends taking videos of you!

3. Make a gingerbread house

What a better way to spend a snow day making a gingerbread house!

4. Donate toys & books

I'm sure many of us are older and grown out of our dolls and hot wheels, that could be donated at churches for children's Christmas gifts! There is no better feeling than sharing Christmas Cheer!

5. Attend a hockey game

This should've been listened as number one but seriously get your bottles our of your house and go to that Red Wings game!

6. Take a Christmas light tour

Personally my favorite has to be the Detroit Zoo Lights! Find out if you have a local Christmas light tour around your hometown!

7. Watch "It's a Wonderful Life"

This is a classic and a must... every year my mom and I snuggle up watching this very long (sometimes painful) Christmas classic! If you haven't watched it, I definitely recommend it.

8. Make hot cocoa and cookies

Mmm... just the sound of homemade hot chocolate makes me giddy for Christmas break!


Enjoy these winter activities, try your own, and get out of your comfort zone this winter! Don't hibernate!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
