OUTDOOR FUN

If it’s too last minute to plan a travel vacation, how about a staycation! There are many ways to create an awesome and fun Spring Break, maybe even within your own zip code. Embrace and enjoy nature’s beauty and spend some time with the kids outdoors—take them to build sandcastles at the beach, go for a boat ride on the lake, or take a hike in the mountains.

MUSEUMS

Spending the day with your kids at a museum can be a fun and educational experience for everyone! There are so many different, and interesting museums that kids will love—Natural History, Art, Toy, Train, and Aviation Museums are just a few. Some museums even have special rooms and activities just for kids! To find museums near you, click here.

HOME ACTIVITIES

If you’re embracing the staycation life, there are plenty of fun activities the kids can enjoy from the comfort of your home. Go for walks and bike rides, host a movie night, bake yummy treats with the kids. Here’s an idea the kids will love: let them invite some friends over and have a backyard campout! Open your bi-fold, multi-slide, lift and slide, or French swing patio doors and embrace the fresh Spring air (and keep on eye your little campers). Don’t forget the s’mores!
