Welcome, March! As I’ve written in the past, this is one of my favorite months for several reasons. For me, it signals that the end of winter is in sight and days are getting longer. March also brings my natal day and spring break, too. As we all know, a few years back, March was a bummer. The March that shall not be named started off with great promise—even a senior spring break trip for my older. Our family’s rule of thumb was to not travel over spring break because of travel price hikes for that busy season. But for our daughter’s senior year, we decided to make an exception. My older and I set off for her class trip with about 20 of her good friends and their parents, and it’s the strangest trip I’ve been on to date. This March, my younger and I will venture out on her senior trip—and there’s a teeny tiny part of me that’s fearful of a repeat. So if things fall apart this year, I’m sorry! If this goes south, I promise I’ll never travel again over spring break. Here’s hoping you have a wonderful spring break, whether near or far!

Our March issue is one of my faves, as well, because it’s our big Summer Camp Guide issue. When the girls were younger, I loved poring over the pages of the guide with them to plan a fun summer. From specialty camps to day camps, sports camps, overnight camps and so much more, you’ll find TONS of great options. Be sure to also check out our digital guide at KCParent.com. It has photos, videos and much more to give you more info about camp options.
Happy March, KC!
