It is a question that parents try and answer every single summer – what’s the best way to keep kids busy when not in school?
With so many great options throughout St. Thomas and Elgin County, myFM hit the streets to find out what you like to do.
Going to water parks, sporting events and local day camps were also very popular answers. Because with the warmer weather seemingly here to stay, many parents are utilizing the great outdoors to keep the kids entertained.
We’re very fortunate to be surrounded by a number of breathtaking spaces, from the Catfish Creek and Kettle Creek Conservation Authorities across Elgin County to the St. Thomas Elevated Park, the possibilities are endless for nature lovers.
And we can’t forget about a very important factor after a long day of fun.
Whether you’re exploring the city, Port Stanley, Port Burwell or beyond, St. Thomas-Elgin is home to some of the most delicious ice cream around.
Be sure to explore your own backyard this summer and find new and innovative ways to have fun as kids will be back in the classroom before you know it!
