Spring is finally here! I love winter because of the holidays but come January I’m ready for the warm weather. In Tennessee spring weather is usually sunny days, stormy nights, highs of 70’s and lows of 50’s. It’s perfect!! With all this perfect outdoor playing weather I thought I would write out some of the things we want to do this spring and some activities to do with your kiddos! Hope you enjoy!
- Start a fruit and veggie garden (make a special area for your kids to dig and go crazy)
- Bake new recipes (lemon blueberry bundt cake, lemon raspberry cheesecake bars, etc.)
