March Break is just around the corner, and it’s the perfect time to rest, recharge, and enjoy meaningful moments with family and friends. Whether you’re looking for adventure, relaxation, or a chance to give back, there are plenty of ways to make this break memorable. Here are some ideas to help you make the most of March Break.

1. Take a Break from Screens

With online learning and digital entertainment at our fingertips, it’s easy to spend too much time in front of a screen. This break, consider unplugging and enjoying some hands-on fun!

  • 📖 Read a book – Choose a Christian novel, a devotional, or a new adventure story.
  • 🎨 Get creative – Try painting, knitting, or making a scrapbook of your favourite memories.
  • 🚶 Enjoy the outdoors – Go for a hike, try a new sport, or explore a local park with family.
  • 🎲 Family game night – Dust off the board games and enjoy some friendly competition!

2. Give Back to the Community

Serving others is a wonderful way to grow in faith and show God’s love in action. Consider these ways to give back:

  • 🍽 Volunteer at a local food bank – Help sort donations or serve meals to those in need.
  • 💌 Write letters or make care packages – Send encouragement to seniors, missionaries, or those in your community who could use a little extra love.
  • 🌱 Do a neighborhood clean-up – Gather friends or family and make a difference in your local area.
  • 🐶 Help at an animal shelter – If you love animals, many shelters appreciate volunteers!

3. Keep Learning—The Fun Way!

Just because school is on pause doesn’t mean learning has to be! Here are some engaging and faith-filled learning ideas:

  • 🏛 Visit a museum (in-person or virtually!) – Many museums offer online tours and exhibits.
  • 🌎 Try a virtual field trip – Explore the Great Barrier Reef, the Louvre, or even outer space!
  • 🍳 Learn a new skill – Cooking, gardening, coding—what new talent will you pick up?
  • 📖 Dive into Bible study – Take time to reflect, journal, or start a new devotional.

4. Rest, Recharge, and Reflect

March Break is also about slowing down and reconnecting with God and loved ones.

  • ☀️Spend time in prayer and worship – Set aside quiet moments to reflect and grow spiritually.
  • 💬 Connect with loved ones – Call a grandparent, visit a friend, or enjoy a family movie night.
  • 🏕️Have a home retreat – Create a peaceful space for rest, prayer, and relaxation.

No Matter How You Spend It, Make It Meaningful

March Break is a gift—an opportunity to step back, recharge, and enjoy the blessings around you. Whether you’re diving into new activities, giving back, or simply resting, we hope you have a wonderful and refreshing week!
