In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall fl ow rivers of living water. John 7:37-38 Spring is one of the most popular sea- sons of the year. After several months of chilly temperatures in many regions, spring provides a welcome reprieve from the cold. Moderate temperatures makes it much more comfortable and inviting to venture outdoors, particularly for families with chil- dren who might not adapt to the cold as well as adults. The following are some fam- ily-friendly activities that make the most of spring renewal. Visit botanic gardens If there's a botanical garden nearby, a visit in spring is a great time to soak in the beauty of nature. That's because an abun- dance of flowers bloom during the spring, meaning a garden will be in peak form. Visitors can meander through rows of rose bushes or tour the labyrinth of trimmed hedges. Beautiful, flowering cherry trees, with their delicate pink or white petals, also are sights to behold in spring. Prepare a home garden Visiting a garden is one thing, creating one at home is another. In addition to plan- ning a vegetable garden to enjoy tasty pick- ings throughout summer, you can devote some property to flowers that will attract wildlife. Check with a garden center about which flowers and plants attract butterflies and other beneficial insects. Many garden centers sell butterfly and hummingbird mixes to attract wildlife. Go animal watching Flowers are not the only thing on display come the spring. Many animals, including birds, are born this time of year. Baby ani- mals are not only adorable, they can be entertaining to watch grow. Families can spend time viewing the animals that visit their yards or surrounding parks, being careful to keep their distance. Adults may be quite protective of their young, so it's better to watch from the lens of a camera or with binoculars. Always resist the urge to help a baby animal who seems like it was abandoned. The parent may be a short distance away gathering food or trying to avoid drawing attention to the young to deter predators. Get out on the water A bright, warm day is an ideal time to enjoy the open water. Spring is a season when many marinas reopen and avid boat- ers put their vessels back into the water. You also can venture into streams or lakes aboard kayaks or canoes, getting exercise and seeing the scenery in the process. Bring a fishing pole along and cast it into the water for a few hours of recreation. Make wind chimes Enhance the garden or decor around the home by making wind chimes or other percussion items that can create beautiful music when spring breezes blow. Com- mercially available kits are sold, but wind chimes also can be made from items like bamboo or even strung shells. These are just a few family-friendly ac- tivities to enjoy this spring.
