This Cold House

Build the ultimate snow fort from FamilyFun

As you build your fort's walls, be sure to designate a space for iceboxthe built-in fridge. Snacks stay cool--and safe from stomping--when stored in this recessed compartment. Create one in a wall about halfway up from the bottom by setting in several blocks that are only half as thick as the others. Then, on the inside of the fort, build up the area below and beside the fridge with additional blocks. The compartment is perfect for storing drinks and treats, but don't let your goodies get too cold. (Ever try to peel a frozen orange?) And, please, enjoy your snack at the table--specifically a snow saucer set upon a pedestal of molded snow cylinders). After snacks, it's naptime, which means stretching out on our firm but comfy "snofa"--another snow block structure.
