Parents must keep children active during the spring break. They had a very long winter without school recess because it was too cold. Most children will want to catch up on lost sleep and try to take a break from learning. Learning should never stop during the school holidays.
Here are a few things that parents can do with their children:
- Take them to the local library
- Visit Leisure Centres
- YWCA has programs for children
- Make crafts with them - use household items and you can purchase glue and other items at Dollarama or second-hand stores (if money is an issue).
- Go for walks in your area or in a park
- Play with your child - this will build memories for a lifetime.
- Read together
- Prepare a meal together
- Clean the house together - you can use music to lighten the mood
- Calgary Parks and Recreation have activities for children
This can always be a challenge for single and working parents, but just try to spend time with your children. It does not have to be long hours. Every minute counts.
Childhood only lasts for 18 years. Let's enjoy and build positive memories together.
