And just like that, it is already February. While the groundhog seeing his shadow signals six more weeks of winter, besides the storms last week, it has felt like a pretty mild season this year. Fortunately, it looks like I will still have time to try-out the snowshoes I received in December!
February marks the start of Black History Month. We found some great ways to celebrate Black History this month on the NAACP site. 28 different ideas include hosting a Black film marathon, reading a book by a Black author, and cooking a soul food meal. There are amazing books written by Black authors for children and here is a list with many child-friendly book options.
Valentine's Day will be quickly upon us. Despite the fact the world isn't quite normal yet, we hope you find special ways to enjoy the day. If you are looking for fun activities for kids, below we have shared some ideas on how to make the most of the indoors with your little ones. Our favorite Valentine's Day family tradition is ordering, or making, heart-shaped pizza and Caesar salad. We have been doing this since our kids were little and now that they are young adults, we smile when we hear this is a tradition that they are continuing. Finally, don't forget about that special someone in your life, traditional gifts of a thoughtful card, flowers or candy are a lovely gesture that can be enjoyed in the office or at home.
We hope you all have a productive, peaceful, and happy February.
