[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. We have a fire pit in our backyard. We also have a large garage. Could potentially get a few space heaters for the garage. Maybe I could get a performer for the garage and hand out cupcakes to go.[/quote] Do kids actually like performers? I think the garage idea would be fine, I just wonder if that's actually something the kids would prefer doing over playground/bonfire/s'mores.[/quote] My daughter is preschool aged. I think everyone is assuming she is in elementary aged.[/quote] Ok. My question still stands: do you think your preschooler would actually want a performer versus a playground? I know where my two preschoolers stand on that issue, and it certainly isn't sitting in a garage watching a singer/magician/clown/etc.[/quote] I do not want to be in the cold longer than I need to. [b]We, maybe I, do not want to go to the playground if it drops below 40s.[/b] This is why we have not been leaving the house for the past few days. I would not want to sit in a garage listening to a performer. I do think my daughter and her friends would enjoy the performer. She loves live shows that are interactive.[/quote] FFS suck it up! This is literally an appalling reason for indoor socializing. Borrow some long underwear and endure the terrible terrible cold for 60 whole entire minutes. I would RSVP no to your party because we are going skiing. [/quote] The irony of this response is that most people want to go skiing right now. It is the only thing to do right now is ski. We would have gone skiing but we chose seeing grandparents for Christmas. We quarantined before seeing them. We thought going to a ski resort/mountain where everyone else was going was high risk. Everyone has a different opinion of risk. We plan to also go skiing after being fed up stuck indoors but don’t act all holier than thou about it.[/quote] We are going cross-country skiing in a state park. We have our own skis and we stay at an on-trail airbnb. So not "everyone else" is going. We might see a total of 10 people, from a distance, the whole weekend. The OP is being such a whiner about the weather. Seriously it's not so cold that you can't last an hour to keep everyone safe. Borrow some snowpants if you must.[/quote] This is exactly what we are doing now! [/quote] And it is the best! Cross-country skiing is so great with kids, and there is nothing like slipping into the woods for a quiet ski on your own as well. The perfect workout in peace and beauty.[/quote] Np here. I got a lot of crap for wanting to rent a beach house by ourselves. I’m glad skiing is deemed ok but the beach is selfish and not ok.[/quote] Go where other people aren’t. It’s not complicated. [/quote]
