Family-Friendly Valentine’s Day Ideas: Fun Activities for Kids in South Barrie
Valentine’s Day is a little easier to plan when it’s just you and your partner. But what about when kids are involved? Or when you’ve just moved to a new place and aren’t sure what to do? Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered!
If you’re thinking of the move to Barrie or the surrounding area, here are three fun and family-friendly Valentine’s Day activities to enjoy with your little ones.
-
Stay Home and Craft
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly activity, head to your local dollar store and grab some red, pink, and white paper, glue sticks, and heart stickers. Then, get creative making Valentine’s Day cards. Put on a classic rom-com (or a Disney movie for the kids) and enjoy some family time.
-
Start Your Own Restaurant
Bring the restaurant experience home! Order takeout from one of South Barrie’s local gems — like The Farmhouse Restaurant or Bloom Bistro & Bar — and let your kids play waiter and waitress for the day. Grab some mini aprons for them, have them set the table and serve you and your partner. It’s a fun way to enjoy a special meal together while the kids take the spotlight!
-
Get Outside and Play
If the weather is right, head outdoors for some fresh air and fun. Visit Snow Valley for a day of skiing, tubing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing. With daily passes available, you can pick your favourite winter activity and make the most of the snowy day with your family!
Or, if you happen to have the grandparents nearby, drop the kids off for a few hours. It’s the perfect chance for you to enjoy a romantic afternoon or evening.
