Spring Break in Central Texas

Spring Break officially begins in this area of Central Texas at end of school today.  And as happened so many years when I was teaching school and had children at home, the beautiful springlike weather we've enjoyed over the past month has gone away and been replaced with cold, blustery, rainy weather.  So it looks like it's going to be indoor recreation for the kiddos getting out next week--at least part of the week.  Hope everyone has a great and relaxing week regardless of the weather. 

There are many fun things for kids to do in the Temple-Belton area that will keep them out of the weather--

A visit to the Bell County Museum (www.bellcountytx.com/museum/) is a wonderful outing.  And if you are looking for bargains, go to the Bell County Museum annual garage sale on Sat. March 12 at the Expo Center and help support the museum while finding treasures galore! Check out activities that are going on at the Cultural Activities Center in Temple(www.cacarts.org).  The Temple Public Library is a great place to while away some time browsing through books and videos and finding just the right ones to take home and enjoy while curled up on the couch.  The Mayborn Museum in Waco has a wonderful children's museum as well as many things for adults and older kids to enjoy.  Check them out as well at www.maybornmuseum.com to see what exhibits and programs are available.   Explore, create, learn and have fun--all these venues will make spring break right here in the Temple-Belton and Central Texas area be a great time for all.
