We spend time in New Hampshire every winter, and this winter it's been c-o-l-d. We haven't been out skiing as much as we'd like, but we have been staying busy up there and going outside in between hot chocolate breaks. One great, easy outside snow painting idea - spray bottles. Fill them with food coloring or liquid water colors and add water, and then squirt, squirt, squirt. My daughter loves this!
It looks a lot like a Jackson Pollock painting. When we got back home, we were looking through an art book (we have some on the coffee table and she's always browsing through them), and I pointed at a Pollock and said, "This reminds me of something you did!" It was a nice reversal of creating art inspired by an artist. Full disclosure: we did have some help from 4-month-old puppy Bode:
