Fun Ways to Get the Most Out of Your Family Day Weekend
If you don’t already have plans for your day off, consider the following ideas for a long weekend to remember:
- Go Analog: We spend so much time staring at screens and using digital tools in our work and leisure time, that sometimes we can forget the benefits and enjoyment of signing off. Make a point of making Family Day an ‘analog’ occasion and ask all members of your family or friends group to step away from their screens. Board games, crafts, cards, and hikes can all fill the day and remind you to appreciate time spent without a constant connection or interruptions.
- Get Lazy: Having no plans can be really pleasurable if you let yourself embrace the ‘nothingness’ ahead of you! So often, we are focused on the merits of a busy and fun-packed schedule. Why not take some time off – really off – and embrace the couch on Family Day? Time spent with your loved ones lounging, snacking, and watching favourite movies in your pajamas can be a surprisingly fun and worthwhile plan to recharge during the day off.
- Plan a Road Trip: 3 days off is not a long time to get too far away but one of the great things about living in Western Canada is our beautiful backyard. It is just a short drive to gorgeous mountains, lush valleys, and wildlife. Whether you are an avid hiker or want to relax in luxury, there are plenty of options and gorgeous destinations just a short drive away. Book a vehicle tune-up and pack your bags for a long weekend getaway.
- Check Out Local Activities: There are tons of free and discounted activities for families to take advantage of on the Family Day holiday. Skating, galleries, sporting events, and hikes are all open for families to get out and explore new areas of the city. Look for events happening in Vancouver or peruse your local town’s calendar to take part in community events.
