These kids snow toys will make enjoying winter WAY easier – and inspire creativity while burning off some of that cabin fever energy!

Winter is coming – and for parents of little ones, that can sometimes mean cabin fever BUT with the right snow toys for your toddler, it can be pretty fun!

I’m sad to say that last year I did not get out in the snow near as much as I wanted to. It’s true life was crazy with my twins who were still super babies, but I kind of try to get out regardless.

Life happens though, and we can always try again!

So this year I am getting some sweet snow toys to enjoy with my now three year old. I think he would have enjoyed some of this stuff last year had I known about them, but I didn’t even know snow toys were a thing (I moved from the desert, this is all new!)

In fact, I saw some “Snow Brick” molds someone was selling in my local Facebook Garage Sale book, and it got me looking on Amazon..

HOLY COW there are some cool snow toys that even I would enjoy! (Did you know there are SNOW SCOOTERS??)

Anyways, here’s a fun list of toys that might inspire you to get outside with your kids this winter. I know it’s alot to get them dressed, but if you have something you can actually do with them besides sled, it might not be as intimidating! (I’m sort of saying that to remind myself too!)

I also wanted to let you know that I am an Amazon Affiliate, and I wil get a small commission should you purchase anything through my links.

Fun Snow Molds for Kids to Build With!

While we would all love to do everything the “old fashioned way” there is something to be said about making sure little hands stay warmer longer! And having some device to help them form snowballs, snow bricks and more makes it that more enjoyable to be out in the snow while not soaking through their gloves too quick making it all! Check out these fun and easy molds kids will love to use in the snow!

Sno Brick Maker

Make a perfect snow fort fast with this snow brick maker!

To think this whole time I’ve been freezing my hands off and soaking through gloves trying to build cool castles for my little guy! This snow fort brick builder is super cheap, and is a great way to keep kids busy out in the snow! There are SO many possibilities with this one, I can’t wait to get mine!

Snow Fort Building Kit

If you have multiple kids, or just want to help your kid make an awesome snow fort this winter, you have to check out this set of awesome snow brick molds!

This is the DELUXE snow fort making kit! The multiple sizes of brick shapers, as well as the cool castle accent mold, will bring your snow fort making skills to the next level! I also like this set because there are different designs, so each kid could be in charge of making a certain part of the fort!

Set of 3 Snowball Makers

These snowball makers will make little hands stay warmer longer by doing most of the snowball makin’ work!

While it’s cool to make your snowballs with your hands, there is something that just feels way more awesome using a tool to do it! Plus, again, the kids won’t get their hands soaked! We always have 2 or 3 pairs of gloves when we go on an outing with our kiddo, so bringing these might make those gloves go a little longer! PLUS I love there’s three so there are plenty of snowball makers to go around!

Snow Penguin Mold

What little kid doesn’t want their very own snow penguin? I see myself creating an army of them this winter!

Imagine – a whole YARD full of SNOW PENGUINS! They have a ton of other cute designs too that include gnomes and little snowmen! Kids will absolutely love getting to create little snow buddies that come out awesome every time with this “Sno-Buddy” Penguin Mold!

Kids Snow Shovel

Toddlers and big kids can enjoy this set of snow shovels that are heavy duty and perfect for little hands!

If you have toddlers, then you know they LOVE doing whatever you’re doing! Especially when it comes to cleaning! So why leave him out when it comes to shoveling your walk way! Toddlers and big kids alike will enjoy this sturdy snow shovel, whether it’s used to build a ramp or clear your drive way! And if they don’t enjoy it well.. everyone needs to earn their keep and make them shovel the drive anyways! (JK! Sort of..)

Snowman Decorating Kits

Sticks and rocks are fun to decorate with (that’s what we normally do!) but these kits might help an otherwise hesitant toddler – or kid who hasn’t seen snow before – get that extra excitement to get out in the snow and have fun!

Classic Snowman Kit for Kids

Get ready for a picture perfect snowman with this snowman kit! The stakes behind each accessory really help everything stay in place!

This is an adorable and classic snowman decoration set that is both reusable and very sturdy! The stakes in the back of each decoration really help things stay in place and make decorating the snowman more fun and easier! I know my guy really struggled last year getting rock buttons and such to stay on, he would have loved this!

Lady Snow Woman Decoration Set

But have you ever seen a snow woman with eyelashes this nice? You need this snow woman kit for the lady in your life!

I didn’t even know this was a thing until I was doing some research for this list! I LOVE IT! For the ladies who want some representation in the snow world, look no further than the Snow WOMAN decoration kit! Complete with lipsticked lips, pretty pink accessories, and beautiful eyelashes! I bet little girls everywhere will get a kick out of decorating their snowman with this!

Funny Faces Snowman Kit!

I love this break away from the classic snowman look! These cute and reusable snowman decorations are made from wood and will stand the test of time!

I love how this set is so different than your “typical” snowman, so it’s no surprise that kids love this set too! Another bonus about this fun snowman decorating set is that all of the pieces are wooden, so they are reusable and will see many winters of play!

Fun Snow Sleds for Kids + Other Modes of Snow Travel

So I know most of you are imagining your typical disc shape snow sled.. but you are doing yourself a disservice if you don’t learn about some of the other awesome sled styles out there! There’s more than one way to go in the snow!

Ski Wagon (that also includes wheels for summer!)

Can you say perfect Christmas card picture or what? This super cute red wood wagon on skis is every kids dream! (Mine basically live in the wagon during summer time!)

This is possibly the COOLEST thing I have seen! Can you say perfect Christmas card picture? A cute little red wagon… ON SKIS! And I love that it’s still functional for every other season because it does include some wheels! Who says wagon rides have to stop – not the person who has this ski wagon (Santa may be getting a ring from me soon!)

Snow Scooter for Kids!

Be the talk of the local ski hill on a SNOW SCOOTER! Kids absolutely love this according to the reviews, and even adults can try it (the weight limit is 225!)

Why slide down snowy slopes when you can soar down them on a friggen’ snow scooter! This seems way more fun than just sitting (although as an adult who gets injured from sleeping wrong, I may sit this one out anyway!) and according to the reviews actually works really well! And for those interested.. the weight limit is 225 so the big kids can have some fun with it too!

A Luge Snow Sled!

Being able to steer while sliding down the slops is possible with this luge snow sled! Even better, the same exact size and model is usable for ANYONE – toddlers to adults!

This snow sled is awesome because you have the option to steer! And for scardey cats like myself who haven’t been around the snow too much, that sounds like a WAY nicer option than speeding down in a traditional sled with no real control of where I am going! This luge style sled is for ALL ages – toddler to adults can use the same exact size model, so this is really a snow toy that can be enjoyed by everyone!

Cute Kids Snowshoes!

Kids will love the added stability of an easy to put on snowshoe while exploring outside during winter!

Snowshoeing is perfect to get your hike on in the winter! If your is uncomfortable on skis, or maybe just not old enough, snowshoes are a perfect way to walk on snow! These snowshoes just strap onto your kids shoes (no specific shoe required!)  and you’re ready to go!

A Snow Ski Set for Strider Bikes!

Turn your strider bike into a SKI MACHINE with this ski attachment for balance bikes! It’s very sturdy, and just goes on under the wheels (You don’t have to remove them!)

I’m so bummed that the picture associated with this product doesn’t show how AWESOME it is! This is an attachment that fits most strider bikes that will allow your kiddo to SKI on his balance bike! For all bike loving kids, this is a perfect way to transition that summer passion into a winter passion as well! Or, if your kid did great on his strider bike during summer, you could get these so that he doesn’t forget that balance that he worked on perfecting all season!

A Classic Looking Toddler Sled

The high sides and wide base of this sled will help your toddler feel safe and enjoy the snow even more!

The optional sled pad is a separate item you have to purchase, but the added comfort and warmth from this liner will be worth the little extra!

When it comes to getting out in the cold and snow with little ones, it’s all about comfort if you’re trying to teach them to love it! The high sides and wide base of this sled will help them feel secure! If you want to make them even more cozy and comfortable, you should get the optional pad that goes along with it!

A Safe and Secure Baby Sled

The waist strap on this baby/toddler sled adds a ton of extra security to sledding with babies. There will be wipe outs guys – let’s just not having flying babies too!

So I ALMOST called the sled above this one a baby sled until I noticed it didn’t have any waist belt. I was super happy to find that Lucky Bums makes an awesome baby sled with a waist buckle that makes sledding with babies way safer! Lucky Bums is an awesome brand (all 3 of my kids first skis and associated ski gear were from them!) so I know this sled will be just as good!

And last but not least, the best indoor snowball toys when you have no real snow!

 Didn’t get the white Christmas you wanted? Well then bring the party indoors and make your own darn winter wonderland! These snow toys are perfect for creating a fun winter play place inside!

Plush Snowballs that feel real!

These plush snowballs will give everyone the fun of a snowball fight without the cold hands!

These snowballs are THE BEST on the internet! The reviews are all amazing… they even supposedly give a subtle crunch sound when you squish them! Does an epic snowball fight Christmas morning sound like fun? Or just an impromptu snowfight at Grandmas house? Then pick these up! They aren’t too hard, and are super durable!

Snowball Shields

Make your next indoor snowball fight even funner with these inflatable snowball shields that are easy to store when not in use!

What kind of fight would you be in if you didn’t have a shield to protect yourself? Complete your snowball fight plans with this set of snow shields and 6 more snowballs!

Are you excited to try some new outdoor snow toys this year?

I don’t know about you, but if I had these last year, I would have been out way more! Part of playing outside with the kids, for me, is having something to engage myself as well.

Building forts, decorating snowmen, using a snow scooter.. those all seem pretty darn fun!

Let me know if there’s some awesome snow toy I missed!

P.S. If you were wondering where some sort of snow paint is, save your money and make it yourself here! I tried researching to find ANY brand with a decent rating, but they were all pretty bad! All it takes to make your own is some food coloring, so mix some up real quick an spend the money on something else (like a good cup of hot cocoa!)
