If cold, gray and slushy are the only words that come to mind when you think of Winter in NYC, then you have come to the right place. Just because the thermometer seems frozen below 32 degrees and you're too cold to think, there's no reason you can't still have fun.

Our Winter Fun Guide is a new guide for us and filled with the best things to do in New York City this winter from culture highlights to indoor and outdoor sports, winter day and weekend trips and other ways to have fun without the sun. We'll be adding more to this guide in the coming weeks and you can always find the latest winter news at the bottom of the guide. Make sure to check it whenever you need a little bit of frosty inspiration.

We've also updated our Indoor Activity Guide where you can find lots of places to get in from the cold, from play spaces to free indoor spots to hang out. There's no need to suffer from cabin fever.

Our Winter and Indoor Guides have everything you need to know to keep the good times rolling until Puxatawny Phil brings us warmer days.

I am halfway through this week of "Best Of 2010" lists and and I'm starting to think I might not be cut out for this type of thing. It's hard to pick some blogs knowing you are leaving so many others out. To make matters worse, my innocent little list of the Best Local NYC Blogs got linked from the NY Times, so now my choices are forever part of the blog of record.

So before I jump into my list of my favorite Mom Blogs, I'd like to make a little speech about how I am choosing. (clear throat, tap fork on glass). The blogs I am including are blogs that inspire me, each in their own way. They are also the blogs that I happened to have thought of during the few hour window that I wrote this post. Tomorrow different things will be on my mind and I will find new sources of inspiration (and remember old ones that I didn't think of when I was writing this — and apologize in my head to people I left off the list). But I hope that this post will be a source for you to find some new inspiration too, with some great blogs that maybe you didn't know about yesterday.

We've had a great week of giveaways this week and made some very happy Holidays for a few folks. While there's still time to enter our giveaway for a $100 Best Buy Gift card (closing Thursday, December 23 at 10PM), today we're giving away 4 tickets to Cirque de Soleil's Wintuk.
