28 Easy Winter Crafts to Keep Kids and Adults Busy All Season Long

The weather outside is frightful, which means it's time to break out all the indoor games, DIY projects and cold weather-friendly activities you can think of to help pass the time. The next time you're snowed in (or, ya know, too chilled to step outside), cozy up with a mug of hot cocoa and get creative with any of these winter crafts. With ideas tailored to toddlers, kids and adults, these easy DIYs embrace all that the season has to offer a.k.a. snow, snow and more snow.

Since it may be best to stay inside and off the roads, a lot of these craft ideas call for supplies that you already have at home, including upcycled Amazon boxes, popsicle sticks or pinecones from your own backyard. Most of these projects also double as decor, so you can swap out the red and green for something that ushers in a feeling of cozy and calm — snow-dusted wreaths, cut-and-fold paper snowflakes and other whimsical winter decorations.
