Check out my spring bucket list with 25 fun activities for kids and families to do this spring. This free spring bucket list printable includes ideas for outdoor activities, rainy day activities, and free and almost free things to do over spring break.
Hey everyone! Today I wanted to share with you my Ultimate Spring Bucket List for Families.
I originally put together this list in 2016, but as most of us are currently home with our kids, I thought it’d be a great time to update it and re-share.
This list was really fun to create because I sat down and really thought about all the fun things my husband and I want to do with the kids over the next couple months to celebrate the beautiful Spring weather ahead.
Even better, you’ll notice most of the items on my spring bucket list are inexpensive, if not free, and are very simple to do.
Most of all the items on this spring bucket list can be completed in the comfort of your own home or backyard, and is the perfect excuse to get outside and get more active.
This list is also a great reminder that it’s the simple things in life that matter the most, and being happy with the ones you love is what it’s all about.

Enjoy the pretty blooms on the trees that are budding around us, enjoy watching the gorgeous sun set, and enjoy eating 1…or 3 cookies with your kids or husband.
Because after all, isn’t life meant to be enjoyed? Have fun, laugh out loud, and stop worrying so much about things that don’t really matter at all.
I hope you’ll print out my Spring Bucket List or create your own to enjoy the Spring season with your family.
Think about all the fun things you keep putting off, and put it on your list, and accomplish it! Life is too short not to have fun!
