It's almost Spring Break all across the country. Kids are
getting excited and parents are looking for creative ideas to make sure
everyone is having a great time.
Make some new memories this week and try some of these fun activities
with your family.
Hot Chocolate Station
Soon it will be summer and hot chocolate will be a memory of the past. Have one last hot chocolate celebration. Get some cocoa mix, fun toppings and cute cups and let your kids get creative. Pair this with a family movie and everyone will have a great night!
Glow Stick Fun
There are so many fun things to do with glow sticks! Snap a
glow stick then carefully cut it open and pour it into a jar. The jar will glow
all night and makes a great lantern for a sleepover! You could also insert
snapped glow sticks into white balloons and created cool glow in the dark
balloons. Make your house light up all night!
A wonderful book to pair with this activity is God Made Light by Matthew Paul Turner. A
beautiful story for children about the creation of light and how God's light
can shine through all of us.
Crayon Art
Find a canvas and all those extra crayons you have around the house. Hot glue the crayons onto the canvas and get ready for a beautiful artistic creation to form right in front of your eyes. Place your canvas outside (if it's hot where you live) and the crayons will melt. Otherwise, you can do this indoors using a hair dryer. Your kids will love hanging their crayon art up on their walls!
Recycle Bin Bowling
Find some empty plastic bottles in your recycling bin and use them to create a fun game of bowling. Fill them with water and add some food coloring and the kids can bowl all day! This is a great driveway activity.
