Mother Nature has reared her ugly head this weekend on the
East Coast! How many of you are dealing
with a lot of snow this weekend? Somehow,
living in Maine, the storm missed us.
Now, don’t think that we are in the clear snow-wise this winter, I am
sure there will be many storms coming up that will bury us.

Finding ways to make it through the “winter blues” are
always at the forefront of my mind! I am
happy to partner with U.S. Cellular this month as we explore some *smart* ways
to fight the winter blues. I love my
iPhone 6 and am happy that there are so many apps that can occupy my time when
I am snowed in. I am also happy that
there are some great apps for my kids to use, when they are unable to get
outside, but have already played with every toy we own in the house and need a
bit of a mental break as well. Don’t
forget to check out the free parent/child agreement that
helps set parameters for your child and cell phone usage.

There are so many apps out there that you can use, whether
it is for a game (a recent U.S. Cellular survey showed that 61% of us use our
phones to play games) or to learn something new. Here are some of my favorites:
it is for a game (a recent U.S. Cellular survey showed that 61% of us use our

Classic Games – Monopoly, The Game of Life, and Yahtzee
Trivia – Guess the Song, QuizUp, Trivia Crack
Classic Kitchen – Food Network on the Road, Just Recipes
Amateur Chefs – Chinese Recipes, Italian Recipes, ChristmasRecipes, Frozen Milkshake, and TeaMaking Recipes
Brain-stimulating – Elevate, Fit Brains Trainer
If you can’t be out in
the snow – Make a Snowman, and Snowman Maker Plus

I know that once the snow stops, the cleanup begins, but we
all need a break from all that snow, and playing a few games is never a bad
thing!

Are you digging out
this weekend? Did the snow miss you?
this weekend? Did the snow miss you?
As I read this, we're experiencing some flurries after having a 40-degree day yesterday – can you imagine…just like that – all that melted snow (because we had a lot over the weekend).
Ong gteat tips!!! Being a FL girl living in NY I totally get the winter blues bad!!!! I wasn't made for this weather lol
We've been indoors a lot lately because of the cold weather. 🙁 I miss taking baby boy on walks outside! Thanks for these tips!
The Amateur Chefs is quite interesting app! We only had very thin layer of snow here, but dissapeared quickly.
These are awesome tips to beat the winter blah. I will be checking out these apps.
These are great tips! I'm in Idaho, and our winter usually lasts from October or November clear until March or later (we've had snow in June many many times). So we definitely get cabin fever. I'll have to check out these apps!
I recently saw an app that lets you have snowball fights. Since I live in a sunny part of California – it is one way I suppose! I like playing Solitaire the best.
Yes! Great list for something to do in crappy weather. Even rain can be a bummer sometimes.
Thanks for the tips! I'm currently snowed in too, so i'm in need of a distraction!
we did not get one drop of snow as it barley missed us – kinda bummed as I was looking forward to playing in the snow with my daughter. Maybe next one 😉
I'll have to check these tips out! I wish it was snowing where I lived right now haha!
I think I am heading to make my own snowman through this app))) great selection
Mine are too little to really use apps, but I love the idea of the parent and child agreement for when the time comes (which will no doubt be sooner than I am ready for 🙂 )
I had to uninstall trivia crack. I spent way too many hours on it, ha – but it was fun!
I'll have to check these apps out. Better yet send them to my sister in law that's had over two feet of snow here recently.
Fantastic tips where in the East Coast do you live? It snowed once this year but it disappeared as quickly as it had snowed lol! Hoping for some more snow so I can do a lovely photoshoot in it!
