Play a round of Frisbee Golf – There are over 30 courses across Northeast Ohio, so there is bound to be one by you, and most are free. You'll need to bring along your own discs. Don't have any? Head to your local Play it Again Sports to purchase a variety of gently used frisbees. You'll need at least one per person who plans to play. We recommend more than one just in case you lose one. Another fun idea? Foot golf!!

Find a Playground – Play at the rocket ship themed playground at Dora Lee Payne Park, take the little kids to the playground while the older kids play basketball at Croghan Park or head to the playground and walk the storybook trail at Carolyn Ludwig Mugrage Park.

Feed Chickadees from your Hand – Having a bird land on your hand is a thrilling experience no matter hold old you are or how many times you've done it. Places like Beech Creek Gardens and Cleveland Metroparks Brecksville Nature Center have designated spots where you can feed the birds. It's best to go when there is snow on the ground. 

Play in the snow – If the snow is plentiful you can head out to these local sledding hills, try your hand at cross country skiing or snowshoeing. Of course the local ski resorts will make there own snow so you can go skiing or snow tubing anytime! Be sure to bring along some hot cocoa!

Head to the Medina Ice Festival – Typically held for multiple days over President's Day weekend, the festival transforms Medina's Historic Square into a sparkling showcase of the frozen sculptures. Take a self-guided tour and check out the unique shops and eateries along the square.
