Things to do over Family Day Weekend
Family Day in Alberta is just around the corner, February 15, and so it might not be a bad idea to start thinking of things to do with the brood over that three day rest. There’s always tonnes of local activities around Calgary that are inexpensive and loaded up on fun. Here are a few suggestions:
All weekend, Heritage Park is hosting what they call ‘family friendly motorcycle inspired fun and entertainment’ in their Gasoline Alley.
Eau Claire Market Family Fun Day
Eau Claire Market is hosting all manner of free activities including face painting and temporary tattoos, live music, ice carving, and crafts! Even the hot chocolate is free!
On Monday the 15th, from noon till 5:00 families can skate for free at the U of C Olympic Oval. Bring a helmet for each family member and a few bucks for the Tim Horton’s truck that’ll be parked outside.
Around the city, a number of rinks are offering free skating on Monday afternoon.
The city-operated pools are offering free swimming on Monday afternoon – great exercise for the whole family!
Kung Fu Panda 3 came out recently, and it’s getting stellar ratings from critics, so kids and adults alike should enjoy a couple of hours with Jack Black’s cuddly martial artist. And Saturday morning you can catch Hotel Transylvania 2 for just $2.99 as part of their Family Favourites series.
Those are just a few suggestions of activities to take in on Family Day. If you just feel like staying in, how about some board games, followed by ‘make your own pizza’ for dinner in front of the TV? Whatever you decide, enjoy the company of those you love. I know I will.
And if that time inside starts to make you think about moving to a new house, contact me – I’d love to help.
