Going to school in Boston, I find myself anxiously awaiting the arrival of a snow day every winter. The days when the world is covered in powdery white, class is canceled, and I’m free of all obligations. The freedom of a snow day can be both exhilarating and a bit overwhelming. I often forget the lists of things I’ve been meaning to get to, and it’s easy enough to end up sleeping the day away. However, a snow day can be a great opportunity to catch up on work, take some time for self-care, and have a little fun. If you unsure of what to plan, here are some things to do on a snow day that are guaranteed to keep you busy until long after the ice melts.
