How to print and use them
- 1Start with the 30 ideas page in the winter pack and tick the ones that appeal.
- 2Put one small plan into each morning and afternoon on the week planner, and pin it up next to the calendar.
- 3Print the puzzles and trivia for quiet afternoons; the answers are at the back of each PDF.
- 4Go through the warm and safe checklist once at the start of winter.
The winter checklist is general information, not medical advice. Ask a doctor before starting a new exercise routine, and get medical help right away for signs of hypothermia such as confusion, slurred speech or drowsiness.

Questions
Do the seasonal printables have holiday themes?
No. They are about the season itself: snow, frost, warm drinks, birds and cozy evenings. That makes them suitable for any home or group, all season long.
Are the answers included?
Yes. The winter pack, the word searches and the trivia all have their answers on separate pages at the back.
Can I copy them for a group?
Yes. Senior centers, libraries and care homes can print and photocopy as many as they need. Please link to this page rather than uploading the PDFs elsewhere.
