2. The Kansas City Zoo – Safari Day Camp
Can’t get off work to hang out with the kids? Drop them off at the Kansas City Zoo’s snow day camp program. Hands-on activities, lunch and education included. First 20 kids are accepted, or call to register.
3. Make snow ice cream
Grab snow before the mailman tromps through it and the dogs turn it yellow, and make
snow ice cream.
4. Finally winterize your car.
You thought the 50-degree weather was here to stay. It’s not too late to prepare your car for the snow and cold still coming our way. Check out tips

5. Go to work or school.
Or perhaps you’re one of the unlucky ones whose workplace never shows up at the bottom of the TV screen. So you sit in your cubicle blogging about the fun things other people can do with their day off. Poor you.
