How To Survive March Break When You’re Staying In Town With Teens

March 9, 2017 by Scarlett Ballantyne Leave a Comment

March Break is meant to break up the school year—and Canadian winters—by giving students a week-long, or in some provinces, two-week-long break during the school semester. While this is a great time for a sunny holiday or getaway, for many families, travelling during this time of year just isn't … [Read more...]

March 26, 2014 by Amanda 1 Comment

Spring Break is TOO LONG. It came in like a lamb, all soft and warm and fuzzy with good family memories at the ski hill, but this second week is proving to be a ghastly lion as the girls claw each others' eyeballs out and bicker for hours on end. Spring Break is TOO LONG I think we have all just … [Read more...]

Spring Break: Movies & Activities for Chillaxing Time

March 10, 2014 by Sonya 3 Comments

This spring break, I'm trying to strike a balance between doing "stuff" and some quiet time for the kids.

We are fans of … [Read more...]

Spring Break(ing Point)

March 5, 2014 by Amanda Leave a Comment

When Canada got hit with last week's most recent dump of snow, I think I heard a collective sigh of despair echo across the nation. It's felt long, this winter. I am done with mismatched mittens, soggy boots,and cabin-fevered children. For the two-week spring break this year we have enrolled our … [Read more...]

(Sn)O(w), Canada!

March 23, 2013 by Amanda

Spring break hasn't been all the springy, if you catch my drift. SNOWDRIFT, that is. Based on all of my Canadian friends' status updates on Facebook bemoaning the latest blizzard, closed highway or white-out conditions, it's pretty clear that we're actually on winter break, not spring. Owell. We … [Read more...]

Spring Break: Close to Home

February 5, 2008 by Jen

I cannot believe that it is already the first week in February – where did January go? As much as I don’t love winter, you really can’t beat those beautiful crisp days where you can spend hours building forts and snow “people”.  And with February comes the last minute plans for Spring Break. … [Read more...]
