Spring is such a beautiful time of year as you can finally get outside. Spring and Fall are my favorite times of the year due to the weather is being comfortable and the flowers are blossoming. Fresh air is so important for your health and wellbeing so I have decided to make a list of some of the things we enjoy, but that doesn’t cost a lot.

When is Spring?

Spring often starts in the middle of March through the middle of June yearly. It is often the most comfortable time temperature-wise on the east coast of the US.

    Ashley, all of these are so much fun. I love that you included many things that teaches the kids to love nature, create things and just be normal instead of a “consumer”.
