Ideas (that don’t require cleaning your
house) for Winter Fun as a Group
Book a pool party or just meet for “open
swim” at a community pool (we’ve had good luck @ Cape
Elizabeth’s pool - there’s a hot tub and it costs $5.00 for non
residents (or book a music or bowling or gymnastics party and share the cost.)
Bring some board games to the top of the
Portland Public Market
Meet for Friday
Night Open Gymnastics, or at the Children’s
Museum (1st Fri $1.00)
Take a winter hike / snowshoe @ Pineland and have cocoa in the visitor’s center.
Gather at a WinterKids
Winter Festival or the Portland Flower Show (preshow
essay contest here – maybe a writing party
at school one afternoon?
Families with younger children – hire
some eighth graders to entertain your kids; they need to raise $ for their trip
to D.C. – and try Parent’s Night Out ideas from
Maine.Today
