Winter Bucket List

Fill your cold and snowy winter with fun activities from our Winter Bucket List.

There are so many things I would like to do and so many places I’d like to see but I can’t remember them all unless I make a list.  So every season I make a list and try to check as many things off that list as I can. Winter is probably my hardest list to make because I dread going outside in the cold unless I’m in about 10 layers. But there are lots of fun things to do in the winter!
