Winter is in a hurry to get to us this year, but that doesn’t have to be a bad thing! Prepare yourself for the cosiest season with great winter activities. Cuddle up in front of a fire – or watch some amazing fireworks! At Toy Street, we know just what you need to channel those chilly, dark days into the snug and safe feelings we love about the cold season. Here are our best winter activities for children.

Disney Sketchy Tales

Disney Sketchy Tales combines the magical storytelling and characters you all know and love with the hilarious confusion of Sketchy Stories gameplay. Based on the parlour game ‘Telephone’, this is one of the best doodling and guessing board games for teens and adults around. Everyone chooses a scenario card, then tries to sketch it before passing it on. The next player then writes down what they think the drawing is, then passes it on once again for the next player to draw. By the time everyone’s delightful drawings and guesses pass through their friends’ weird minds, things will have gone horribly wrong. Then it’s most grins wins!

Paw Patrol Teepee

This cool Paw Patrol Dash Teepee Play Tent assembles in an instant to provide hours of fun and is ideal for all little Paw Patrol fans. The fun design features images of Marshall, Chase and Rubble on a blue patterned background. This teepee is perfect for making a cosy fort full of pillows and blankets. If you have pets that aren’t fans of fireworks, they may enjoy curling up with you in here for a while.

Husky Plush

Don’t have your own furry friend? The floppy husky plush is a perfect gift for dog-loving children! Made to a high quality and designed with an adorably charismatic face and super soft coat, this puppy is irresistible! They’ll make the perfect little companion for your blanket forts.

Disney Castle 3D Puzzle

This 3D puzzle is perfectly themed for the season, featuring tall towers and blue turrets, this beautiful castle is home to your favourite Disney characters. Including Frozen’s Anna, Toy Story’s Woody, Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother, and many others. A perfect gift for young Disney fans with fireworks on their mind.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

The ultimate family activity, Mario Kart is an all-year staple. The wireless Switch controllers mean you can play from under all the warm blankets you desire, without sacrificing your ability to win! Mario Kart is a timeless game that also makes for a great gift. There are 48 courses and over 10 cups to battle on – from Mario Kart Stadium to the infamous Rainbow Road – as well as multiple game modes. There’s something for everyone in Mario Kart.
