5 Fun Products to Enjoy Snowpocalypse 2015

Our planet has become a frozen wasteland, the last remaining inhabitants careening through it aboard a massive, globe-spanning armored train, just chilling with Chris "Captain America" Evans. Wait, that's the plot of Snowpiercer. But it is snowy out there! Especially in New England, where Winter Storm Juno unleashed its wrath in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

And where there is snow, there are snow days. Here are five awesome products to help you survive the Snowpocalypse (or just have a little winter fun).

This blanket works great for staying toasty warm on your couch when it's freezing outside, but that's not why we included it on this list. We included it because we just used it to build a wicked-cool pillow fort in the office. Seriously, you should see this thing—it's an engineering marvel. Sherpa Fleece Blanket, Southern Plus. (800) 241-7107

The only thing worse than getting stuck outdoors in blizzard conditions is getting stuck outdoors in blizzard conditions without any way to check your Twitter feed. Fear not: With these touchscreen gloves you can keep up with your girl T. Swift's latest updates without having to worry about losing a finger to frostbite. Touchscreen Gloves, Pop! Promos.

Snowblindness: It's a real thing. That's why you should never leave the house in winter without these sunglasses. Or, better yet, don't leave the house at all. Just place a towel down next to your space heater, throw on these shades and kick back while imagining it's July and you're on the pool deck of a Caribbean cruise line. Bouton Blizzard Indoor/Outdoor Glasses, Starline Inc. (800) 831-2231

Edward Scissorhands could carve a mean ice sculpture, but that's nothing compared to the brilliant art we're going to etch onto our car windows with this ice scraper. We've been working on a reproduction Albrecht Dürer for the last six hours and our hands are still plenty warm! Ice Scraper Hand Mitten, Jetline. (877) 858-9908

There are plenty of excuses to eat chocolate. It's a holiday. It's your cheat day. It's breakfast time.

Instant Hot Chocolate, Lanco. (800) 938-4500
