Spring is a time for new beginnings. If you’re trying to think of family activities for this spring look no further. Below are 5 activities that are sure you please the whole family!

Take a Walk/Hike

Spring is a beautiful time of year and is perhaps the best season to enjoy a walk or hike. The air is typically cool and new flowers and greenery are just beginning to bloom.  For an extra layer of fun, plan out a D.I.Y. project before the hike and have the kids collects leaves, rocks, or wildflowers along the way!


Reconnect with the Garden

If you’re a gardener then you’ve probably been waiting all winter for spring! This season, consider getting the kids involved! The best way to get kids passionate about nature is for them to experience it firsthand.

Take a Road Trip

The spring is a great time for a road trip to a State or National Park. Make sure to check the parks schedule to make sure the park has opened for the warmer months. Early spring can be a great time to visit a park as crowds are typically low. However, be aware that spring break can often be a very busy time at state and national parks.

Make a D.I.Y. Craft

Whether it’s a homemade birdfeeder, hand-painted plant pot, wind chime, etc. there are so many easy and fun D.I.Y. crafts. Plan one the whole family will enjoy and get crafting!

Go to the Lake

Even if you don’t have a boat, there’s so much fun to be had at the lake! If your family is adventurous consider booking a campground near the water. Depending on your area, the weather may still be cool, so plan accordingly. If you live in a warmer place this may be the best time of year for a day at the lake.
