Fun Spring Break Recap Activity
Well, Spring Break this year has been full of surprises already. Just a few weeks ago we were all assuming that spring break would be in March as usual. But then it got shifted to April here in Ontario. That was clearly shocking to many people. I’m not sure it matters anymore, I mean not like we are able to travel or go anywhere outside the province.

This year we took a long road trip to Vermont and stayed at Sugarbush Resort. It was an amazing five days and a memorable adventure capped with a lot of skiing and some fantastic foodie experiences too. But it started with a long 9 1/2 hour drive. A drive that long can be a nightmare with kids, or it can be a fun experience. Unless you have a Printable Scavenger Hunt.
