With winter coming up, there is a whole new set of hobbies to take on. Whether you want to go out into the snow or cuddle up by the fireplace, there are a plethora of fun things you can do this winter.
If you’re a fan of the snow, you can try skiing or snowboarding. While these options may be expensive, they are a great way to spend a day with your friends or family. This area has many ski resorts close by, like Campgaw in Mahwah, Mountain Creek in Vernon, or Mount Peter in Warwick. No matter your skill level or who you go with, you can always have a great time at the mountain with friends.
If skiing isn’t really your thing but you still want an adrenaline rush, you can try sledding or snow tubing. You’re never too old for some fun in the snow, and these places can give you great new memories with your family and friends. Just like skiing, you can snow tube at Campgaw and Mountain Creek at their snow tubing parks. You can sled anywhere you want (even in your own yard), but great places for sledding in Wayne are James Fallon Elementary and the Packanack Firehouse.
Another great activity for you and your friends to do is ice skating! Whether you’re skating locally at the Ice Vault or far away in NYC, you can make tons of new memories ice skating. Don’t be shy if you’ve never been—teaching friends how to skate is guaranteed to bring a ton of laughs. After skating, you and your friends can hobble together to get some hot treats, which, again, is guaranteed to bring some giggles.
If you’re not made for the cold, there are still many fun winter activities for you. You can snuggle up by the fireplace with the people you love (whether it be your family, your significant other, or even your pets) and watch fun winter movies. You can even make yourself a nice hot cocoa to treat yourself!
Winter is a time where everyone comes together. So, whether you’re skiing with your friends, sledding with your siblings, or watching a movie with your cat—or all three if you’re really in the winter spirit—you are guaranteed to have a fun season.
