Our most popular activities for Spring🌱

Hi Reader,

As soon as I get a little more sunshine in my life, I feel about 1000% more motivated to try new things. Whether it's dreaming about a new garden space or trying an art activity I've had pinned for years.... Spring makes it all seem possible!

Here are our Top 30 Creative Ideas for Spring

My family has started hanging a big sheet of butcher paper on the wall for each new season, full of fun activities we want to try.

Our Spring list includes a trip to our local Botanical Conservatory, stocking up on a fresh set of library books, hitting some nature trails, and crafting a bouquet of these giant 3-D flowers.

Of course, if a list full of open-ended ideas feels overwhelming, you might be more interested in our NEW super-easy printable Spring Creativity Pack.

We even made one just for teachers, complete with an adorable bulletin board kit!

While I love a good messy art project, it's seriously a dream to have a few no-prep art ideas ready to go whenever I need them.

Because sometimes life is messy enough without adding paint.🙃

Hope you have a fantastic week!

My family will be in the path of totality today, and I must say... we're pretty pumped! (We even made special snack cups for the occasion.
