Social Connectedness-Get Involved, Get Connected- MARCH Week 3
With spring right around the corner, there are some exciting happenings in the North Country! It’s time to dream of gardening whether you’re a serious gardener with a master blueprint, or someone who just buys what you think is pretty.
A fun activity with young children is to find a flowerpot with good drainage, add some potting soil and sprinkle with some grass seed. Water it lightly every day and in about a week, you’ll have a pot of nice healthy grass. Kids love watching it grown and “mowing it” with a scissor when it gets too long.
Or make your own plans with people you enjoy spending time with. Remember Progressive Dinners? Or lunches? Get a few friends together and plan an evening or day of fun. Here are some fun ideas: progressive supper ideas - Google Search
