While summer is undoubtedly my favorite season in the Pacific Northwest, spring runs a close second. Savor life’s little moments this spring with your kids by starting seeds as you wait for summer.

We’ve handpicked more than 20 family-friendly performances making their way to stages across Puget Sound this spring. Our March Play List is bursting with spring’s annual favorites: flower festivals, Holi celebrations and leprechaun-inspired events. And after a day out, consider watching one of these Oscar-winning, family-friendly classic films as you unwind together. 

Just in time for summer vacation, a local fourth-grade teacher helps bring Washington state history to life through travel. Consider this article your staycation planning guide. And finally, it just wouldn’t be spring without some sort of cleanup inspiration. Your challenge: to organize the digital spaces that dominate modern parenting. Tame and reclaim is the name of the game in this virtual sweep.

Here’s to a happy spring!
