Want an opportunity to get a sneak preview of what is sure to be a box office hit? WONDER opens in theaters on Friday, November 17, and I have 15 “Admit Four” passes up for grabs to attend an advance screening this Tuesday evening, November 14, at Mazza Gallerie in Chevy Chase!
Based on the New York Times bestseller, WONDER tells the inspiring and heartwarming story of August Pullman. Born with facial differences that, up until now, have prevented him from going to a mainstream school, Auggie becomes the most unlikely of heroes when he enters the local fifth grade. As his family, his new classmates, and the larger community all struggle to find their compassion and acceptance, Auggie’s extraordinary journey will unite them all and prove you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out.
Giveaway: For a chance to win an “Admit Four” pass (yes, four people can attend!) to see WONDER at Mazza Gallerie on November 14 at 7pm, simply leave a comment below telling me your family’s favorite cold weather activity. Get an extra chance to win by entering on the KidFriendly DC Facebook Page, too. This giveaway will only run today, so enter by 11:59pm November 11, 2017.

Our family’s favorite cold weather activity is tubing.
Making s’mores out back over fire and telling scary stories!
PS- Wonder is our favorite book ever!!!!
My family is learning that snowy days are best started with a good warm breakfast followed by some sledding or a long walk to wear us out and enjoy the calm of Winter and finally back home for some cocoa and a movie or board game.
We enjoy making snow ice cream when it is cold enough to snow!
Our family’s favorite winter activity is to ice skate in the Washington Harbor rink (and many other ones in DMV area)!

That would be awesome
That would be awesome. Smores and skiing
Our favorite activity is to go to the river to give bread to ducks. We usually do that once a year in a very cold day, when there is no food available and the lake is frozen. I wish we could bring them home!

We love ice skating, sledding (if there’s snow), or going to museums. The zoo is actually great in the winter because there are no crowds and you can hop between heated buildings to see the animals. Amazonia in the winter is great!

A warm breakfast followed by a day of Board games while we sip on hot coco. When we’ve tired of the games, we head out to downtown silver spring for ice skating and during the holiday season, we visit brookeside gardens winter light show. We have a blast!
Our families favorite activity is bundling up and finding a new trail around the DMV and exploring when it gets colder out. We have three boys 6, 4 and 2 so getting them to run around is a must. We love to explore then come home and warm up by starting a fire in the firepit and roasring marshmallows and having cocoa. This makes the hike so worth it.
We enjoy tubing and watching movies.
Play board games by a roaring fire, with a good stack of new library books waiting nearby.
