This ‘5 Fun Indoor Activities For Winter and Wiwiurka Double Fun Set Review’ post is sponsored by Wiwiurka. As always, all opinions are my own.
We live in Minnesota and winters can get L-O-N-G. As a matter of fact, last week brought us several more inches of snow and some FREEZING temps! To help pass the time, we have some fun go-to activities that help keep the kids busy. Today, I’m excited to share them with you!
5 Fun Indoor Activities For Winter (+ Wiwiurka Double Fun Set Review)
Don’t get me wrong, we absolutely love spending time outdoors in the winter too. But sometimes, the temps and conditions just don’t allow it or make it so unpleasant that we camp out indoors. So check out some of the fun indoor activities for winter that we enjoy.
Create An Obstacle Course
There are many great options for this. You can use furniture, toys, hoola hoops, and even sheets of paper (for ‘stepping stones’) to create a fun activity for kids to conquer. The Wiwiurka Double Fun Set is also a wonderful addition to your obstacle course path!
Build A Fort
Forts are fun for all ages! In the middle of a long winter, a fort can make a great place to read, have a tea party, take a nap, or just hang out.
Do Some Baking
Get the kids together and head to the kitchen to whip up some delicious treats. We think there’s never a bad day for hot chocolate chip cookies right from the oven.
Make A Snow Sensory Bin
Spread some towels down on your floor and grab a plastic tub, water table, or kids swimming pool. Fill with snow and a variety of toys, spoons, play animals, measuring cups, and more and let the kids play with snow INSIDE! This is perfect when it’s just too cold for the youngest family members to head outside and enjoy that fluffy white stuff but you still want to let them in on the fun. (NOTE: Even older kids enjoy this activity!)
For added fun, have some eye droppers and dishes with colored water so they can color the snow.
***Another option would be to fill the bathtub with snow for super easy clean up.
Create Some Art
There are so many ways to create art and Pinterest can be your best friend when coming up with ideas. But if you want to make it simple, set the kids up with an old Amazon box and some paints and brushes and let them paint away!
Wiwiurka Double Fun Set Review
We received the Wiwiurka Double Fun Set a few weeks ago and the kids have been having so much fun with it! This set includes:
- Double Rocker
- Large Foldable Triangle (Pikler Triangle)
- Reversible Ramp
Large enough to accommodate two+ kids at a time, it’s the perfect play set for at home. I love incorporating toys and products that encourage movement and active play and the Double Fun Set does just that. The dimensions of these pieces will promote endless hours of free play for kids. They’ll enjoy sailing adventures or an under-the-bridge escape from the bogeyman and more.
My kids especially love how tipping the double rocker over makes it a rocking boat while setting it upright allows it to become a climbing bridge.
Geared for ages 18 months to about 8 years, these pieces are constructed from FSC European Birch plywood and are finished with non-toxic sealant and paint. This helps make them durable, safe, and appealing to the eye. These are the kinds of toys I don’t mind having in my living room because they are just so beautiful!

I’m a city girl turned country by my awesome husband and we have three busy boys and two darling daughters. I love spending time with my family, reading Karen Kingsbury novels, and catching up with friends while our kiddos have play dates. I’m blessed beyond measure and can’t wait to see what God has in store.

The Wiwiurka Double Fun Set definitely sounds like a great way for kids to have fun while indoors! I know that mine would have absolutely loved this set when they were younger. When we are stuck inside for long periods, I like to bake and do arts and crafts with my kids. We also have a few pieces of exercise equipment, like a treadmill, so they can still get exercise and get their energy out.

My great niece would be in 7 heaven with these toys to climb on and over etc etc…………… BUT her mommy would have to get rid of all of her living furniture. Our weather is so so up and down in temp. One day 70 the next 32…… But we have been lucky not a lot of snow this year. But we all know around her that winter is not over till we get our Easter snow.

We had a few more inches of fluffy cold stuff ourselves over a week ago. I know how you and your family feel! This is definitely a fun activity that should keep your young ones physically busy for a while. The
Wiwiurka Double Fun Set is a great way for your young kiddos to have fun too. I like that it’s durable and big enough to hold two children. I also like that it can keep the kids off of their phones or tablets for a while. Baking is a fun activity too. This was pin worthy! Thank you for sharing!! -

My grandkids would have a blast on these activity toys! They look durable, safe, and fun for a child to keep active in the house. The pictures above resemble a wooden play ground. This would make a great gift. It looks like it could be passed around to different households and still pass the test of time! Thank you for sharing!

I am so glad I do not live there. Hence, retiring to the South where we are all ready thru the first blooming of flowers this week. The toys are great they look sturdy and very well made.
