Make Snow Days Fun

Break out the long underwear and make sure the hot cocoa is ready because when there’s snow on the ground, it’s time to get outdoors and go sledding with your kids. While there are plenty of sledding options for toddlers, kids and adults, we’re rounding up our favorites so you can have them ready before the winter weather hits. So if you are looking for a slower downhill option or one that will fit your entire family, there’s a sled, toboggan and snow tube for everyone on this list.

Gizmo Riders Baby Rider Toddler Sled

For the littlest sledder in your home, the Gizmo Riders is designed to keep babies and toddlers safe and secure while zooming downhill. The front tow strap makes it easy for you to pull them around, and the high back and safety buckles keeps your little one buckled in during your outdoor adventures.

GoFloats Winter Snow Tube

Because if you can zip down a snowy hill on a unicorn, flamingo, or snow dragon, we think you should. This snow tube is designed for kids and adults and comes in six different designs so everyone in your family can have their favorite animal snow tube when the snow hits.

Flexible Flyer Winter Trek

If you’re looking to invest in a sled that you’ll be able to use year after year and not replace every season, the Flexible Flyer is the way to go. It’s over five feet long so it’s large enough to fit three people on each sled ride, and is super durable so if you need to use it to haul gear or firewood, this sled can pull double duty.

Ski Scooter

If your kids want to try snowboarding but they need a little practice first, the ski scooter is a fun way to try out a new skill. What’s really fun about the ski scooter is that with push, kids can scoot along snow even if they don’t have a hill, and with a flashing LED light, outdoor snow days are even more fun.

BUY IT: Amazon, $62.99

Frost Rush Arctic Saucer Sled

The Arctic Saucer is super lightweight and easy to pull. So kids can easily drag this saucer up the hill after each ride down. It also had a padded handle and grip making it easy to hold onto while sledding.
