Birgitta Mayer, author of https://parentinglifelessons.wordpress.com is on the blog today. She has shared her spring bucket list with her readers and here it is for you to peruse as well. Maybe there’s something on her list that you can fit into your spring plans this year!

I think spring is finally here! Better late than never….It is fun to create a “Spring Bucket List” and to come up with activities both you and your kids will enjoy. I have created “Bucket Lists” now for all seasons and I have an overall “Life Bucket List” too.

Here is my “Spring Bucket List”: (Might give you some ideas to create own)

1. Adventureland (Farmingdale, NY) and/or Dutch Wonderland (Lancaster, PA)
2. Buy some tulips/daffodils
3. Get a ride on the back of a Harley Davidson motorcycle (This is on my personal “Life Bucket List”!)
4. Go on a scavenger hunt with the kids in NYC (or in your local area)
5. Enjoy the beauty of Brooklyn Botanical Garden or NY Botanical Garden
6. Make a trip up to the Cloisters (Fort Tyron Park)
7. Buy some scented candles and soaps at Bath and Body Works (Love, Fresh, Sunshine, Smile, Love, Happy sound like fun scents to me!)
8. Have a picnic (weather permitting)
9. Hiking and/or walk around the lake at Bear Mountain State Park
10. Plan a NY getaway – Iloveny.com
11. Stay at a hotel with an indoor pool
12. Take a walk on the Hi-Line in NYC
13. Travel out east to the Hamptons and the North Fork, LI in the off-season (Pick up some Rose Wine at Croteaux Vineyards – one of our favorites!)
14. Go to the local park and play basketball
15. Go to a baseball game
16. Drive-in Movie Theater (Link to the 5 closest ones to NYC)
17. Circle Line Cruise or Double Decker Bus (Who says you can’t be a tourist where you live?)
18. Walk 10,000 steps a day
19. Stand outside the Today Show with a sign
20. Have a “Kaffee und Kuchen” (Coffee and Cake) Playdate
21. Go to the NY Transit Museum
22. Fly a Kite and sing “Let’s go Fly a Kite” from Mary Poppins
23. Go Ziplining (Link to The Adventure Park at Long Island)
24. Go for family bike rides (with helmets of course!)
25. Go to doggie park with Max and Bella (our dogs)

Mommy Poppins® also has Top 100 Things to Do with your Kids Before They Grow Up inNYC and Long Island . Good stuff…
