Spring has officially sprung in the Nonahood! If you’re looking for some ways to have fun with your family and children this season, we here at Nonahood News have a couple of suggestions.

Checking your local parks

The Nonahood is rich with fun, family-style entertainment. We’ve not reached the peak of the heat here in Central Florida, so you still have time to enjoy the summer sun before it gets too hot!

Hit up the pool

The pool is a great spot for people of all ages. Bring your floaties and take a dip to escape the sun.

Visit Disney, SeaWorld or Universal

Though most tourists prefer to visit our theme parks in the summertime, most Floridians would argue that February to April is the best time of year to visit the parks and escape the heat (and tourists!).

Have a fun family dinner

If you’re tired of eating at home, Lake Nona is bustling with a variety of new restaurants to suit even the most picky eaters.

Or cook a meal together

Feeling inspired? Check out some of our local grocery stores or the Saturday Farmer’s Market and get cooking together as a family!

Take some family photos

With all the flowers and nature coming out this time of year, it is the perfect time to get some beautiful photos of you and your family; whether you use a selfie stick or a professional camera, just capture the moment!

Have a family movie night

Get the popcorn popping and settle in for a fun family flick!

Or a family board game night

Gather everyone together and prepare to see who has the most skill in Monopoly or who comes out a millionaire in The Game of Life!

Visit the beach

The same as the theme parks, beat the heat (and the tourists) and take a spring time beach trip!

Go on a morning walk

With all the biking and walking trails we have in Lake Nona, it is easy to find a route that you and your family could travel for both exercise and some excellent scenery.

No matter what you decide, springtime is a beautiful season here in Lake Nona and in the state of Florida, so enjoy every moment of it!
