As Ned Stark, the King of the North in Game of Thrones, said, “winter is coming.” The season that will rejoice those who are overwhelmed by the hot weather and those who love the winter season is about to begin. So, are you ready for winter to come? If you are not ready yet and/or do not want to leave the summer, don’t worry, there are lots of fun and warm activities that you can enjoy in the winter season. Here are the good things that winter brings and the nice activities you can do in winter.

1. Snowball Battles and Beautiful View

Although the winter season evokes the idea that people will be stuck at home, it also offers you many opportunities that will make staying at home advantageous. Despite the cold weather that winter brings, it has an effect that increases solidarity between people and keeps relations warm. In this season, a person does not like to get out of bed, does not want to leave the house even if s/he manages to get out of bed, from the moment s/he leaves the house, s/he starts to miss her/his home and keeps thinking about when s/he will return home. People generally do not like stay outside in cold weather, they rather watch outside the window in a warm place, to watch people rush outside. Especially if it’s snowing, watching out the window is another pleasure. Of course, if it is snowing, the desire to go outside may become more dominant. The shouts of snowball playing and large or small carrot-nosed snowmen in front of the houses are one of the most beautiful view in winter.

2. The Perfect Duo of Winter: Hot Chocolate and Marshmallow

It is also nice to spend time at home in winter. Especially if fleeces are worn and socks are put on pajamas, you have one last step to have a good time at home: Making your hot chocolate in your mug and getting your pack of marshmallows before moving in front of the fireplace. Afterwards, you can chat, read a book, sip your hot chocolate, or decide which romantic-comedy movie to watch while your marshmallows are broiling on the fire. The decision is yours, now you are ready to spend a nice and warm time at home.

3. Richness of Outfits

When the weather starts to get cold, summer clothes are removed from the shelves in the wardrobe and winter clothes are placed on the shelves. It is up to you to enrich your combination. Different types of hats you can wear such as cloche hats, newsboy caps, berets, bobble hats are waiting for you to choose them. In addition, scarves, shawls, gloves, sweaters, coats, boots are waiting for you in the showcases. And of course, most importantly, socks!!!

    4. Time to Go Cinema/ Theater/ Opera

In this season, it is preferable to go to the cinema, theater and opera compared to other seasons. Sitting in the cafe after a beautiful performance and drinking coffee, tea or hot chocolate is an indispensable part of this season. Talks about the performance watched while sitting in the cafe, and then walking together to reduce the effect of the cold on the way home are the things that make winter beautiful.

5. Winter Sports

The coming of winter is very good news for people who love or are curious about winter sports. You can spend the winter months productively and healthy by finding the one that interests you among some winter sports such as snowboarding, ice hockey, skiing, curling, and rafting. Ice skating, which is one of the winter sports, can be an activity that you can easily learn and have a good time. Those who fall on the ice, those who fall to the ground while trying to get up, will make you laugh and make you go cautiously to skate carefully. Perhaps while you’re skating on the ice, you decide that your future profession is ice skater.

6. Holidays

In addition to all those good things, the winter season also brings with it two more beautiful holidays: Thanksgiving and New Year’s Eve. While these holidays are a rest period for children in their education and training life, a time when they are pampered and delighted with various gifts; for parents, it creates a time when they can spend more time with their children, can visit their relatives, cook and taste delicious meals. At the end of these holidays, despite the cold weather, the times when people warm up and have warm times are remembered and the next winter season is looked forward to on the way back.
