Albany Mommy Blog - Fun things to do in the Albany New York Capital District area for kids and parents

No school!

The kids are off this week - yeah!  It's freezing cold outide - boo!

Here are some previous posts to check out with info for keeping kids amused during the February break:

Library activities

Indoor activities

Crafts

Cool apps

I got an iPhone a while ago and am still getting used to it. For all the computer/technology things I can do there's still a lot my kids have to teach me!

I found the coolest app today that is perfect for ME!

I Gift Thanks. You can send thanks directly from your phone.  Your thanks is sent by email or MMS. No more trying to find time to write thank yous and procrastinating. I might actually get Xmas thank yous done.

Free pizza!

 

Indoor activities

Canon, maker of the best cameras, has an awesome section of their website with HUNDREDS of free paper crafts for kids of all ages.

They range in complexity from easy to needing a graduate degree in engineering. Great for all age groups.

Just download the pattern and instructions and print on your home printer.

Have fun!

 

 

Snow play!

Fun tip.

Fill a spray bottle with water and some food coloring. Let the kids spray the snow and make designs.

Another fun thing for the kids to do in the snow.
