While we are now smack dab in the midst of winter with a new snowstorm every week, I’ve been dreaming about springtime and being outdoors {without a snowsuit}. I started a “bucket list” of spring activities so we all have something to look forward to. Plus, when we have a day with no plans and are trying to find an activity, we can pick one off the spring bucket list, and off we go!
1. Plant a Vegetable Garden: I have already found Benedict’s Home & Garden in Monroe a great place to get supplies.
2. Play in the Rain: There is nothing to plan for here; we just need Mother Nature to do her job.
3. Visit a Farm & See the Baby Animals: I hope that Jones Family Farms will have some baby animals.
4. Have a Picnic in the Park: Fairfield County has so many beautiful parks. Since we have park passes for Trumbull, I think we’ll go to Twin Brooks Park. Our family pictures were taken there in the fall, so it would be great to go back there and see it in a different season. Plus, they have an awesome playground!
5. Go for a Nature Walk: The Housatonic Rail Trail will be a good option; we can even bring bikes!
6. Decorate Easter Eggs: Eggs, food coloring, and a toddler who loves to get messy make this an easy one to check off.
7. Go to the Zoo: We will definitely go to Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo!
8. Spring Cleaning Tag Sale: Spring clean the entire house, sort through what we aren’t using or needing anymore, and have a weekend tag sale! AND even make a little bit of extra money!
I love making seasonal to-do lists, they’re perfect for days when we know we want to get out, and can’t decide what to do/where to go!
But, I have to admit, my lists never look as cute/colorful as your list 🙂
