We are under an Island wide shut down, yet again..sigh...this Winter seems to be never-ending. The start of the Kids March Break as well- thought I would share a few ideas for when they come to you today or a day this week, and say "I'm Bored" hope these ideas help, or create new ideas to do- let us know how you make it over the week! hope you can take a moment or two, to relax and enjoy the break, and make some memories as a family. Take care of yourselves! Hope shoveling out doesn't take too long!
