Snowshoeing Tips (for toddlers, and beyond): 
Rent snowshoes for toddlers – go in and make sure they fit with winter boots  
Use the washroom before layering up! 
Go with a friend to feed off of 
Check expectations! 
Go to a park or backyard (not a big, deep snow trail) 
Bring a sled as backup!! Give them choices 
Do what you’re encouraging, and have fun yourself  
Small exposures add up 
Plus, get YOUR snowshoes on before strapping up kids or babywearing 

 
Other Winter Tips: 
Practice wearing gloves ahead of time [hand warmers are a great backup to hold (even without gloves)] 
Have something to look forward to after the adventure – often to warm you up!!
