I had a walk out to Boat How from Boot in Eskdale this morning, it was really strange weather as well with big snow flurries, rain and sunshine - all in a short space of time. Fortunately the clouds cleared as I reached Burnmoor Tarn so I got some great views of Scafell and into Mosedale. We haven't had any snow at all in the south lakes! Photo's are posted:
Apart from the odd flurry, we've had none (at sea level, not the tops). Child friendly outliers: Orrest Head, Latterbarrow and Gummer's How are 3 we've done recently. Depending on ages, virtually all are child friendly.

To you mean it just hasn't settled (?)
In flatest fenland we've had snow virtually every day for the last fortnight but it all melts away within an hour [:-(]
PS - Can you recommend any child friendly Outliers (?)
Holme fell is excellent with superb views, boulders and rocks to scramble on and near by tea house by Yew Tree Tarn is very reasonably priced and furnished by Beatrix Potter. Park at SD 321 998 (free) go Holme Fell -- Hodge Close (don`t fall in) then either Tom Heights or Black fell or both and then back to car.
