March is a bit like November—except that the kids are home from school for a week. But that’s no excuse to wish this soggy month away. Make the most of it with these tips on how to have fun while you’re dreaming of warmer weather. Remember, spring will be here soon (read and repeat often).

DO
Plan an Oscar Party, a St. Patrick’s Day Party or a Dinner Party
Why? Because parties are fun, they break up the month and our party plans make it so much easier.

GO
To LEGO Mania
Why? Because we know kids love LEGO. Kids can bring their own masterpieces in for the ‘Old Time Victoria’ competition and watch a certified LEGO master build a giant new sculpture.

GET
Rain boots for the kids and some for you, too
Why? Because if you’re wearing boots you can jump in puddles. That’s fun.

PLAY
One of these Six Classic Party Games for Kids
Why? Because these six games don’t require screens or special equipment. They’re good old-fashioned ways to have fun.

READ
Boredom Busters, a book of over 50 awesome activities for children aged seven years and up, by our friend Caroline Fernandez
Why? We think the title of the book speaks for itself.

SURF
evolvefunctionalfitness.com
Why? Because bathing suit season is around the corner. This awesome new fitness site is offering free trial memberships and all you need is a 9 foot space. No equipment required. Try it with a friend, just for fun.

APP IT
hubapp.com
Why? Because everything’s easier when you’re organized. Available for iOS and Android, Hub allows everyone in the family to share calendars, lists, tasks and sporting event info. Everyone will know what’s going on and where to be. Then you will have more time to have fun.

MAKE
This spring pasta recipe
Why? We’re tired of the slow cooker and eating brightly coloured veggies is well, more fun than eating brown stuff.

GREEN IT
Wear the team colours on March 17 and go green for St. Patrick’s Day. Make something festive.
Why? Because even if you’re not Irish, it’s still fun to celebrate the way they do.

HELP
The Victoria Humane Society by supporting their silent auction and pub night
Why? Because the Society is in need of blankets, towels, dog beds, collars and more. Donate new or gently used items and particpate in their silent auction.
