Winter - Fun Things to Do

winter is here... the days are getting shorter, the weather is cold and wet, and the kids are bored with being inside, so it's time to have some Fun! This list of fun things to do in winter has been compiled by Aussie Mums and their kids who love to play together, keep active and have fun...

Build a cubby house indoors, make it big enough to fit in a friend or two and have a picnic lunch inside.

Rug up in jackets, and woolly hats pull on your gumboots and go out and jump in puddles.

Visit your local library and stock up on books to read together, some libraries have free activities or story telling sessions.

Have a movie day, pile the pillows on the couch and snuggle up under some blankets and watch your favourite movies.

Take the ball to the park; you can kick the football or soccer ball around or practice throwing hoops.

Cook some yummy treats then have a special afternoon tea with hot chocolate and your homemade treats.

Put your favourite music on and dance around the house, the kids will love it and its good exercise too.

Make a big pot of soup, let the kids grate the vegetables, measure and add the ingredients, stir it and then have it for dinner.

Play dress ups or lets pretend, a few more layers of clothes on a winters day never goes astray.

Do a jigsaw puzzle or have a games tournament, winter days are great for a long Monopoly game.

Rug up in your warmest clothes put on some sturdy shoes, grab the umbrella and go for a long walk.

Go on an excursion to the local museum or art gallery and look at all the interesting exhibits.

Try ice-skating, roller-skating or ten pin bowling these are all great activities for wet winter days.

League Two Betting Review - 29 January 2006

Wycombe Wanderers remained top of league Two despite a coupon busting performance by failing to beat Stockport county. After only managing a draw at Barnet last week, the bookies priced Wycombe at a best price of 2/5 to see off Stockport who had won away just twice all season.

However, midfielder Matthew Hamshaw gave Stockport a shock 38 minute lead at adams Park. The Hatters almost hung on for an unlikely 6/1 victory until striker Ian Stonebridge struck an equaliser with one minute remaining. Stockport are now unbeaten in four matches.

Grimsby Town stay in third despite slipping to a home defeat against Peterborough united, their fourth game without victory. michael Reddy gave the 5/6 home favourites the perfect start in the 29 minute although Peter Gain levelled terms for Peterborough almost instantly. Mark Wrights side found a winner through Danny Crow to seal a win at 3/1 and edged them into a play off place.

second placed Carlisle united wasted an opportunity to go top of the league on sunday, slumping to a 3-0 defeat at Macclesfield. Two goals in the opening 10 minutes helped seal a 9/5 victory for the Silkmen.

Northampton were one side that made up ground on the top three with a 2-0 win at Bury. An own goal from Andy Parrish and Andy Kirks ninth goal of the season wrapped the match up for the 6/5 Cobblers by half time.

Rushden & Diamonds gave their survival hopes a fighting chance with a 3-0 victory over Oxford united. Three goals in the opening 22 minutes levelled 6/4 Rushden on points with Stockport.

With both Rushden and Stockport picking up points, Torquays win at Shrewsbury kept their heads just above water. Striker Paul Robinsons first goal since November ensured 10/3 outsiders Torquay remain one point clear of the drop zone.
