My 5 Favorite Springtime Activities!

March 22, 2018

Spring is around the corner! I cannot wait for the nice weather to arrive, so here are some of my favorite springtime activities! 

​1. Berry Picking! We have gone berry picking for a few years now, and I love it! One year, we picked so many strawberries and made jam. Last year, we just ate them all!! Here's a picture of my son eating strawberries while we were picking last year. 



2. Farmers Markets! I love buying from local farmers. Meeting them and seeing where the food comes from inspires me to cook healthier and try new things! Farmers markets are a great way to do that! Walk around, enjoy the company and the food. I checked out the Princeton Farmers Market last year, but would love to find others to try this spring too! 

     


3. Frozen Yogurt! Nothing ends a beautiful, warm spring day better than a froyo date with the family! What are your kids' favorite toppings?!


4. Parks! Every spring we find new parks to try out! Then we know where all of our favorite spots are by the time summer has arrived!

5.  Gardening! While I don't have a great "Green Thumb", I usually try my hand at a small garden. Not only is it a great way to eat healthy, but it gets the kids outside, and involved with where their food comes from. I am looking forward to growing some fruits and veggies this summer!
