Here are some LH-type activities for those long winter evenings:
(1) See who can cram the most hard candies into their mouth, a la Nellie and Willie Oleson.
(2) Guess how many oyster crackers are in a jar.
(3) Taste test: is it lard or is it butter on the bread?
(4) Hang winter coats on pegs. See who can toss an orange into a pocket.
(5) Find the only bug in Dakota Territory. Extra points if you don't eat it.
(6) See who can rock the schooldesk the longest.
(7) Drop a shoe button through a crack in the floor upstairs. Run downstairs and see who can find it first.
(8) Sit on a pin. See how long you can sit before jumping up and being punished.
(9) See who can prepare the best breakfast using only Ma's receipts in SSL.
(10) Shoot a goose, but don't quite kill it.
