Sometimes, even the sunshine throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area can be pushed aside by rain clouds or snowfall. Perhaps the weather is keeping you indoors for the weekend, or maybe you simply want to create an at-home activity list for your kids come summer vacation. Whatever the reason, your Trophy Signature home offers the space you need to keep the fun going all day long. 

Bring the outside activities in

If the cold winds bring the kids inside for the day, that doesn’t mean they need to put an end to some of their favorite outdoor activities.

Planning an indoor picnic is a great way to make you feel as if summer is right around the corner on a cold winter day. Lay out a blanket on your living room floor, add some cushions for the kids to sit on and have them help you prepare the food and gather the snacks to recreate your own picnic in the park. 

Having a game room, media room or flex space in your home gives your kids the ideal space to spread out—and what better way to stay active while inside than to plan your own obstacle course? Look around your home for inspiration to build the course, and let your kids take turns creating their own rules. 

Classic at-home activities

Sometimes, a good old fashioned movie night is precisely the way to go, and your Trophy Signature home living room is the perfect place for the activity. Get the popcorn and hot chocolate ready and have a movie marathon all night long. For an even better night, help your kids create their own fort in the living room by clipping blankets together, draping them over the furniture and start a disney movie marathon on your smart tablet for a truly cozy experience. 

Take advantage of technology

Nowadays, you can find just about any type of class online, and it gives parents an incredible opportunity to ensure that their kids are having fun while also learning about an exciting new topic. Practice your language skills together, try your hand at some at-home science experiments or find an online art class for the kids and proudly hang their completed masterpieces on your fridge. 

Get outside when the sun is shining

One of the perks of living in Texas ensures that a majority of our days are met with sunshine and blue skies. When the season begins to change and winter slowly turns into spring—it’s a great idea to get outside with your kids and enjoy the open backyard space you have available in your Trophy Signature home. 

There’s no reason why art activities need to be kept inside. Even a small container of sidewalk chalk can keep kids entertained for hours while allowing them to release their creativity at the same time. 

Planning a scavenger hunt is another incredible way to keep your kids active when the weather warms up. Give your kids a list of the items you hid and let them spend the afternoon searching the backyard to check everything off.
