Spring is in the air? Can you believe it? Just a few weeks ago we were experiencing winter and now I’m thinking about spring cleaning. Also just a few weeks ago, Madison was 4 years old and now she’s 5. Where did the time go? When did my baby grow up? While I’m happy that she’s getting older, wiser and also taller, it also means that it’s time for a wardrobe refresh. After all, a new season usually means new clothes. I also have to think about what I’ll be doing with her once spring break begins. New clothes and activities? Where do I begin? Luckily for me, I knew just where to go. OshKosh B’Gosh is usually my go to store when it’s time for wardrobe refreshes and not only are the clothing practical but they’re also age appropriate. Today I want to share with you 5 things you should do with your kids this spring.
With the weather warming up during spring, I much prefer my kids to be outdoors. After all, spring and the great outdoors just seem to go hand in hand. After spending most of your winter indoors, it’s time go out and show off those bright colors. I’m one for putting Madison in bright colors that reminds me of Spring. Lovely pinks and pastels, after all Easter is also in spring and we all know what comes along with Easter. So here’s my first thing to do with your kids this spring.
1. Easter Egg Hunt
There are lots of places that host this family event and a quick Google search will alert you to your closest one. If you would prefer, you can even host your own with your family. The kids will have fun decorating the eggs, and finding them will be a treat. Join in the hunt and make it a family event.
2. Have A Picnic
You don’t need to travel far to have a picnic, you can have a picnic right there in your own backyard. Lay a blanket on the ground and pack your favorite finger foods and kid friendly snacks, play some music and have some games on hand. How about blowing some bubbles? That’s always fun!
3. Fly a Kite
Now who doesn’t like flying kites? I know that I do, and so do my kids. On a windy day get those kites out and start flying them in the sky. You can even get competitive and the one whose kite goes the highest wins. There’s nothing wrong with a little bit of friendly competition.
4. Ride a Bike
Kids love riding bikes and this spring may even be the time when they may want to get rid of those training wheels. Get your bike out as well and go on a ride together. This will not only be fun, but is also a great form of exercise for everyone involved.
5. Take a Trip
You don’t have to plan an expensive trip/vacation. You can take a trip right there in your own hometown. Most of us have yet to discover our own states, and there is usually so much to do. Take a quick trip in your car and visit your local zoos or museums. Or, if you do have the time and the money, visit a neighboring state. It will not only be fun, but you can make it educational as well.
When it comes to kids’ spring activities, you want your kids to be comfortable, but what about fashionable? Comfort and fashion go hand in hand at OshKosh B’Gosh, and right now they have just what you need for your little one’s spring wardrobe refresh. What’s good to know is that they also now go up to size 14! I have been shopping at OshKosh B’Gosh for the past 20 years and have never EVER been disappointed, and you won’t be either.
