Are you and your children stuck indoors because of the cold weather? Are they driving you nuts with their high energy or spending too much time in front of the TV? Here are some fun, energetic games and activities you can play inside so you don't go stir crazy!

i will do it as long as it is with your boys!
Play doh, baking, make a mini slide out of a smooth masonite board propped up by cushions against your couch - the fun lasts for hours, dance party, bean bag toss... By the way Hap Palmer has great activity songs for kids. We found it at library storytime and are loving it.
Thanks for the suggestions, Lissy! My boys would love the slide idea.
