Have anything planned this Family Day weekend? There are tons of activities in the GTA for you to choose from, plus there are those you can enjoy at home. Can-India has 10 great ideas, feel free to improvise.Family Feb15

  1. Watch a movie: Whether it?s at the nearest cinema or in the comfort of your home, choose a film the whole family will enjoy. And don?t forget the popcorn. If you want to try something different? TIFF Bell Lightbox has special family films, activities and workshops?all for free!
  2. Go to a play: Never taken the kids to the theatre before, well here?s your chance to introduce them to a bit of live drama. No retakes allowed. Plus it?s an art form that really needs a boost.
  3. Visit a museum or an art gallery: Teach the family a little art appreciation, plan a trip to the AGO or ROM. Art not your thing? What about history, the Casa Loma is a fun place especially it?s little secret passage and archery workshops. And there?s always the Hockey Hall Fame that no sports fan will be able to resist.
  4. Take a trip to the Science Centre: This is a favourite with kids of all ages as well as the adults. Even if you?ve been there before there?s always something new to see. Family Day weekend fair revolves around the Science of Flight, with hands-on workshops to create working parachutes, kites and paper airplanes, live flight demonstrations with a variety of bird species. It?s one way to have fun while you learn.
  5. Take a walk in your neighbourhood: Don?t want to go too far? Take a walk in your neighbourhood.? You?ll get a bit of fresh air and exercise, and maybe even catch up with the neighbours.
  6. Explore the closest park (weather permitting):? Spend some time with Mother Nature. Discover the trails, observe the creatures at play or and indulge in the good old game of tag.
  7. Pull out the board games: Scrabble, Pictionary or Monopoly anyone?? It?s the right time to break out those board games. Play Twister if your family likes some action, it?s so much fun watching people get down on the fours and tied up in knots.
  8. Plan a family arts and crafts activity: This great especially if you have young children. There?s lots of ideas available on the Internet.
  9. Try the indoor family fest at Downsview Park: They?ve converted over 30,000 square feet into an indoor amusement park with rides, activities and attractions including strolling entertainers, interactive, arcade and carnival games.
  10. Explore the city: Don?t want a structured activity take a drive (or the transit) down to the city. The Waterfront has special family day activities planned including free crafts and family movies.? The Harbourfront Centre also has something for everyone from skating and snow castles outside to dance competitions, interactive theatre and? LEGO inside!
