Sick of staying in your apartment because its just too cold outside to think of leaving the couch? Well bundle up and gets some friends together and try these activities out! 

1. My ultimate favorite thing to do in the winter in Boston is ice skating on frog pond in Boston Commons! It’s pretty cheap too. Its $7 to rent skates and I think about $5 to skate. They play great music and if you need to rest your feet you can grab a hot chocolate and relax on a bench.  It’s a great day or night out with a group of great friends who enjoy letting loose and don’t mind if their friends laugh at them when they fall on their asses. When skating is over scoot on over to Finale for some dessert and drinks to finish the night off!
2. A trip to a local brewery! Another great activity for a group of people. Sam Adams & Harpoon both have locations in Boston. And you get free beer at the end if 21+. They give you coupons for local restaurants so afterwards you can enjoy m ore beer and food with your friends.
3. Enjoy a day trip to the Institute for Contemporary Art. They usually have very unique shows running there. It’s also located right in the seaport district so the views are amazing. Right next door is Atlantic Beer Gardens and further down the street is Legal’s Test Kitchen.
4. Visit the Aquarium! See some of winter’s creatures – penguins and seals. And while you’re there you can man handle a starfish. They also have fun IMAX movies that play there. Once done with your day under the sea, head on over to the shops and bars around Faneuil Hall.
5. Finally, and might be most fun & guaranteed to warm you up – a pub crawl scavenger hunt! You can make up your own and set your friends loose or you can Google around and download one from the internet. Sure to be a crowd pleaser and pair your friends up in odd combos so everyone can really get to know each other and hopefully make some new friends!

Note to Self: Bring a camera – fun events need to be documented!
