My son told me yesterday at the dinner table that it was the first day of spring. It took me back for a second since we have been having some cooler temperatures the past couple of days. But sure enough, I looked out and I saw our daffodils starting to bloom. My kids start their spring break on Thursday and I can’t be more excited to find some fun spring activities for kids that we can do together.
Spring is the time where we break out the sidewalk chalk, grab out paints, collect rocks and get a little dirty while we explore the outdoors. Its not hard to guess that its my favorite season of all. While I would love spend the entire season outside, spring is known for its rainy days so we found a few indoor activities as well as some of our outdoor favorites!
