Last minute snow mittens

We get snow maybe once a year where we live, so snow gloves/mittens are not something I usually feel the need to invest in. This year, however, we had an entire week in December of no school because of snow, and we had a big “snowstorm” last weekend that left us with 5 or so inches of snow on the ground. My boys refused to go outside unless they had warmer gloves, so I whipped up a pair of fleece snow mittens (similar to my shark mittens) for each of them and they worked wonders!
