My son and I recently returned from a tour of the Vancouver Aquarium as part of our Spring Break activities. It was an awesome visit and amongst the amazing displays was an opportunity to see a 4-D Sponge Bob movie that was the highlight of my son's day for sure! However, despite arriving on a Tuesday it was very busy with long line-ups and crowded displays. You need to pick your times during Spring Break arriving either shortly after opening or later in the day I was told.
If crowds are not your thing and you are still looking for ideas to fill-in your Spring Break activity list I've come across a few interesting events you might want to try.
Vancouver Maritime Museum Spring Break Family Crafts: Make your very own pirate hat, flag or treasure map with a visit to the Maritime Museum. Everything you need is included with the price of admission. A similar event is also being held at the Maritime Museum in Victoria. Learn to be a pirate! Arrrrr
Kid's Swap Meet in Langley: Want to trade in those toys no one plays with for something new? Check out this swap meeting either as a purchaser or sell those little used treasurers. Small admission fee and only $20 to rent a table as a seller.
5th Annual LEGO Exhibit at the Sidney Museum: Always popular! Check out this amazing exhibit of LEGO in Sidney, BC. Kids of all ages will enjoy the creative and exciting displays many which are original. Runs through the end of March.
Children's Museum of Tacoma: Open year round, the Children's museum offers not only exhibits but a host of fun activities for the whole family. While in the Seattle area also check out the Science Center for more fun!
