Spring blizzard? No problem! Here's how to turn a natural disaster into fun for the whole family:
REFRIGERATOR EXTENSION
Snow piling up on the windowsill? How convenient! Instead of scooping left overs out of the pan, placing them in a container, waiting for them to cool down, and finally jamming them into your fridge, you can take your pan straight off the stove top and put it directly outside. Plenty of room out there!
INDOOR / OUTDOOR PLAY
Instead of wondering what your toddler is doing out in there in the snow and ice, just open the door to the terrace and let her play unsupervised. Tough to get into trouble there!
WHAT'S FRENCH FOR "SNOW"?
Trapped by a blizzard? Now's the ideal time to drill your kids in French. Not the usual, boring stuff, like how to conjugate appeller, but practical vocabulary like "scissors," "needle," "thread," "hems," "stitching" ... and other words your mother needs to translate a French sewing pattern she's having trouble deciphering. C'est fantastique!
