At Home Fun

Maybe a board games day with some friendly competition. Challenge the kids to make a new art project. Spend a day at the library picking out new books to read. Spend some time in the backyard or go on a walk in the neighborhood to burn off some energy and explore your local community.

With lots of options, you’re sure to find something fun, educational and entertaining to keep the kids going this spring break. Click here for 101 more local Vancouver Spring Break activities!
