Sledding Hills Guide for Toledo & Surrounding Area

Flat! That’s the one word that best describes the terrain in NW Ohio & Southeast Michigan, which is totally fine unless it snows & kiddos want to go sledding. In which case kids have two options, one, gather all the neighborhood kids and have a BYOS (Bring Your Own Snow) party in the front yard, where kids literally gather as much snow from all the yards to make a snow hill, or, hit up a snow hill.

10 Magical Events to Attend with Kids Christmas 2025 in Toledo

After a warm bath, my mom would drape our blankets over the heat register so they’d soak up the rising heat. By the time my siblings and I climbed into bed, those blankets were more than just cozy, they were a full-body embrace. That warmth wrapped around us from head to toe, sinking deep into our bones and hearts. It wasn’t just comfort; it was care. It was love, stitched into the simplest nightly ritual.
