Spring Will Be Here Soon

It's coming, really, it is. Spring will be here in just a few short weeks and all those cold winds and snow storms that plagued the entire U.S. this year will be history. The change of season often means breaks form school and daycare. If you're planning to take some time together to welcome the warm weather, enjoy it with these 12 ideas for celebrating the spring season with kids.

If you're lucky enough to be able to get away for spring break, consider these family vacation destinations from our Guide to Traveling with Kids.

For those who can't take time off of work when their child's school or day care is closed, remember to plan back-up child care well in advance.

Wow, what great ideas. This is such a good resource, and while it’s been warm(er) here in Florida, these springtime ideas will be put to good use. Thanks.

Just came back from a game of minigolf with my 4 year old son, it’s fun watching him in shorts :-)

A good resource for finding backup childcare / daycare is totkare.com

Commenting here as I couldn’t find a general comment place. As this is an LDS site why do you have (annoyingly distracting) ads telling me I am the millionth visitor. Firstly we are taught not to be looking for freebies and secondly it’s a giant lie. Everyone is the millionth visitor. Makes me wonder how much credence I can give to the info on your site.
