My kids surprised me a little last night. As I was putting them to bed, I said, "Two more days of school and then two day off."

"No!" They both corrected me. "One more day, then four days off."

"What?"

I rushed down stairs to check the calendar. Sure enough, they have a PA Day tomorrow, and family day on Monday. FOUR WHOLE DAYS! Of course, hubby is working both Friday and Monday. Whose idea was Family Day anyway?

Now I am trying to find great things to do around Toronto. Here is my short list:

1) Subway Ride and ROM visit

2) IMAX Movie at the Ontario Science Centre (They recommend the Alps for children - BUY TICKETS EARLY!)

3) Visit to the Hockey Hall of Fame

4) Arts and crafts, puzzles and games, and baking at home, with a Pizza lunch

5) Subway Ride and skating at Toronto City Hall

6) Shopping, Lunch and Spa Visit with girlfriends (oh wait - it is supposed to be a family activity)

6) Reorganizing the toys and books for donation

What are your ideas?

Easters Seals is doing a skate with the Toronto Maples Leafs. Would be super cool, but you have to raise (or pay) $100 per person to participate.

Think about what is around you. The Beaches has stuff going on, as does Old Fort York.

In the middle of this, we also have to do something specially for Valentine's Day. I will post all of my special, no babysitter available, Valentine's plans.
