Family Matters: Last-Minute School Vacation Ideas
Friday, April 15, 2011
Kido Tip 1. Look for signs of spring.
Kido Tip 2. Pay it forward.
Do something unexpected and nice. Make cookies or muffins for your neighbor, local librarian, or firefighters (delivery to a firehouse can be a major highlight for kids). If you live near a nursing home, you can bake for residents, but call ahead to get advice on dietary restrictions. (Cheap)
Kido Tip 3. Clean up your local park or playground.
Bring a bag and gloves and make a game out of picking up trash. Count how many pieces you collect. (Free)
