What Would Macaroni Kid Do?

Spring Break Edition

By Toms River Macaroni Kid March 30, 2018

Spring Break is here! My kids have been jumping up and down with joy since they got out of school yesterday at 1pm. If you are like my family and planning a staycation Spring Break, here are some things to help you plan your week.


First, the weather is not on our side this week. There is lots of rain in the forecast, so get outside when you can. Plan outdoor activities the days you can get outside. Save the library, movies, Skyzone and mall for the rain days.


This weekend is supposed to be sunny so print out our Easter Happenings Guide and hit up some Egg Hunts. 

Many were postponed because of last week's snow so there are more to choose from you than eggs you can carry.

Visit Huddy, Castle, Riverwood, Winding River, Silverton, and Bayside parks over spring break and post a pic of yourself here to be eligible!
