School’s out for the holidays, but that doesn’t mean the learning has to stop! Sesame Workshop has plenty of at-home resources and games to teach kids about something that makes the season magical: the weather.
Snow Monster Maker is an adorable online game that easily explains the wintry weather change to little ones. Kids slide the temperature up and down to see the warm springtime rain freeze into a snowy winter wonderland — then build their own Snow Monster, decorate it with accessories, and watch it melt away in the warmth! With different temperatures and outfits for kids to experiment with and discover, this hands-on STEM game is the perfect holiday-themed activity.
