Snowy Day...or just stuck inside crafts

Between the cold, some snow and having a little one we haven't had the outside time I would rather have. So we have had to become creative in what we do inside instead of watching tv. I came across these articles and have made some of the ideas with the kids and we had fun, so I thought maybe you'd be interested in reading also if I keep it here I have a reference to find it.  Are you spending a lot of time outside if so where do you live?
