When the weather outside is chilly, finding things to do in the winter can be a challenge, so we have come up with 13 things you can do to enjoy the long winter seasons.

No snow, but want to do something wintry?

• Go indoor ice skating with family and friends
• Go indoor skiing it can be just as much fun and it’s cheaper than going abroad!
• Go for a walk outdoors then come home to a warm glowing fire and treat yourself to a nice cup of hot chocolate with marshmellows

If it has been snowing…

• Build a snowman or a snow fort with your children
• Go sledging at your local park
• Wrap up warm and go far a nice long walk and admire the beautiful snowy wintry scenery

Prefer to stay indoors?

• Do arts and crafts with your children e.g make paper snowflake cut outs, or paint a nice painting
• Bake cookies and decorate them with icing sugar (create a winter theme)
• Put a movie on, light the fire and snuggle up on the sofa under a nice woolly blanket
• Grab your favourite book or start a new novel and pour yourself a nice glass of wine and relax!
• Put on your most comfortable clothing on, wear your softest slippers and do some online shopping! One of the best things about Firemizer is that you can buy it online, so there’s no need to worry about big crowds or queues and the product will get delivered directly to your door – perfect!
• Have an extra warm and relaxing bath and read your favourite book

Do a good deed

• Nothing warms the heart than helping others in need, why not donate food, clothing and toys to a local charity shop, it will also make you feel better and happy knowing you have put a smile on someone’s face.

These are just a few ideas you can do over the long winter seasons. You may wish to do all the outdoor activities during the day then do all the indoor activities in the evening time.

Enjoy!

We would love to hear what you like to do in the winter time, feel free to give us some winter activity ideas below!

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching! Some of you may already have an idea or a plan for the day on how to show your special someone your love and appreciation. For those who may not have a plan yet or are still thinking of an idea for the evening, why not do something a little different this year, why not create a special experience for your special someone? After all isn’t that what Valentine’s Day is all about?

Now, how can you make this day extra special? Well they do say ‘home is where the heart is’ and there is no heart bigger than the hearth of your home, the most focal point of your home. If you have got a fireplace or a stove, you should absolutely make the most out of it! Why not cook up a nice 3 course meal for your special someone and make the evening extra romantic by putting rose pedals on the table and moving the table close to the fire to create that perfect romantic atmosphere. Too cheesy? What about laying out a couple of classic movies on the table and asking your special someone to choose the movie he/she wants to watch and snuggle up by the fire together. The more effort you put into the evening, the more they will feel extra special and happy. If you think refueling your fire is too distracting for you while you are enjoying each other’s company, why not insert a Firemizer into your fireplace to make your fire last longer so you don’t have to worry about refueling the fire as frequently?
