Fun Family Tradition

Fresh snowfall!  In our family we drop everything to get kids bundled at the site of the first flake.

It doesn’t matter that their snow pants are 3 inches too short and we can’t find matching gloves…they just want to throw that first snowball!

To warm their little fingers we serve a cup of hot cocoa  to thaw them out!

While blog hopping I found these fun hot cocoa ideas that would make a fun treat to serve or help others start a Fresh Snowfall/Hot Cocoa tradition! Hot Cocoa and Snow 4 great ideas

1.  Martha used a cookie cutter to add a little extra love to her hot cocoa

2. Mushy There is a simple tutorial on how to make these after you download the  Free pdf.   Super easy and super cute! Thanks Monita

3. Lolly Chops Lolly has a free pdf of this hot cocoa bag.  There is even a tutorial on how to make it and a recipe!  Thanks!!
