Ontario Family Travel Events North of Toronto for April 12-14 - Perfect for fun day trips with kids!

Yes! Still OPEN FOR SKI!

While the weather might be playing a hard ball game when comes it to spring - there are many signs out there that spring has indeed arrived. For one, the robins and Canada geese are back. They wouldn't come back for more winter, would they? Or maybe they wanted to see if it was true that Blue Moutain Resort was still offering day skiing with a good number of open runs and terrain parks!

OPEN weekdays for the season

Another sure sign of spring is the opening of one of the most popular Ontario historic resorts - Sainte Marie among the Hurons. The reconstructed 17th century European (French) and Native (Huron) community located in Midland is now open weekdays until May 17. May 18, it will be open 7 days a week until October 14. This is a must family attraction to visit or perfect school trip for any teacher looking for educational and historical fun! Activities include a short film, tours and activities on the historic site, a visit inside an authentic Huron longhouse, games and an indoor museum that contains some interactive displays. This is where Ontario started and is essential for any little Ontarian to see!

It's not too late to book a family weekend getaway either - we've been working furiously to update our FAMILY SPRING GETAWAYS - and there are some really great packages with all-or-nothing bells and whistles when it comes to activities or r&r time with the fam.

Fun activities, r&r for the whole fam!
