This year, it seems that winter is hitting the United States pretty hard, at least where I live in central Ohio. The winter can seem impossibly long to trudge through, especially after the brightness and warmth of the holidays. However, throughout the years, the A Grade Ahead (AGA) blog has looked at the many different ways that winter doesn’t have to be so worrisome! Join me for a resource roundup: your one-stop shop for all things winter by AGA!
