Maryland is not snow central but we get enough to have had a few snow days a year when my kids were in grade school.
Complete blast. I had cheap snow boards, discs, even those plastic sheets you sit on and sled down hill with.
Great little hills in the area are perfect for snow days. Get in the truck.
I also towed them behind my Tacoma using a water ski tow rope. I'd plow high to get a good base of snow on the road and off we'd go, snow boards and discs, 1/2 a mile run.
If there were no crops in the fields and it was cold enough, that was in play as well.
We had a freaking blast...we still talk about it.
