Mountain vacation over NY break

Kids (2, 5 & 7) are wanting to do another mountain trip to see snow again this year. Wife & I were hoping to be done with the pigeon forge/Gatlinburg touristy area. But the kids absolutely love Dollywood & Anakeesta.
What are some ideas/locations that I don't know about that may be about a 30–60-minute drive into those 2 spots; or nowhere near there and have similar theme park ideas. We drive there from NOLA, so we don't have to deal with flights, car rentals & car seats
Or typical Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge trips usually involved 1 day hitting Apple Barn and local outlets for winter gear (better winter selection in TN than in NOLA), 1 day at Dollywood, 1 day at Anakeesta, 1-2 easy hike days, 1 random day where we get sucked into the touristy area.

Go out west. If you can afford pigeon forge you can do the front range in Denver or thereabouts.

Yea, but it seems like he likes the cheese. Hard to find that in the West . Hard to find that anywhere
