How to Have an Amazing May 1st Holiday
The May 1st holiday is one of my favorite times of the year! School is out for a whole week which means lots of free time to play and have fun. But after a couple days of just lounging around, I start to get bored. That's why it's important to have a plan for how to spend the holiday so you don't waste it. Here are some of my top ideas for making the most of your May holiday:
Spend Time Outdoors
The weather is beautiful in early May, with warm sunny days that are perfect for being outside. One of my favorite things to do is go on a hike or nature walk with my family. We pack a picnic lunch and water bottles, put on our hiking shoes, and head to the mountains or a local trail. I love looking for different plants, animals, and rocks along the way. Sometimes we bring binoculars so we can birdwatch too. At the end, we find a nice spot to eat our lunch and just relax in nature.
If hiking isn't your thing, you could have a fun backyard camping adventure instead! We set up a tent in the backyard and pretend we are on a real camping trip. We roast marshmallows
over the fire pit, tell spooky stories, and go stargazing before bed. Waking up to the chirping birds in the morning is so peaceful.
Another outdoor option is going to a nearby lake or river and renting a paddleboat, canoe, or kayak for the day. Life jackets on, we paddle around exploring little coves and keep our eyes peeled for ducks, fish, and other wildlife. Don't forget to bring snacks and drinks to refuel when you get tired from all that paddling!
Visit Local Attractions
There are so many cool places to check out around town that we never seem to have time for during the school year. The May holiday is perfect for being a tourist in your own city! One year, we went to the science museum and I got to do all kinds of fun experiments and see the planetarium show. Another year, we visited the art museum and got to see paintings and sculptures from all over the world. My personal favorite was the dinosaur museum where we saw gigantic fossils of T-rexes, triceratops, and other prehistoric creatures.
If you'd rather be outside, a trip to the zoo, aquarium, or amusement park could be a blast. Watching all the different animals and riding the roller coasters never gets old. Some cities
also have awesome parks with hiking trails, playgrounds, picnic areas, and botanical gardens to explore.
Get Crafty and Creative
For the days when the weather isn't nice or you just need a break from being outside, crafting and getting creative indoors is a fun option. One year, my parents helped my brother and I make homemade greeting cards to send to our grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. We used construction paper, glue, stickers, and whatever random craft supplies we could find around the house. Getting a card made by a kid in the mail always makes someone's day.
Another year, we made our own room decorations and jewelry out of clay, beads, paints, and other supplies we picked up at the craft store. My owl sculpture didn't turn out too bad! You could also make friendship bracelets, painted flower pots, origami...the list goes on.
For something more tech-savvy, download a stop-motion animation app and make your own little movie using Lego characters or other toys. My best friend and I made one about superheros having an epic battle once - it took us all week but it was awesome! Arts and crafts keep you busy while letting your creativity flow.
Catch Up on Reading and Movies
Having a whole week with not much scheduled is also the perfect opportunity to check out those books and movies you've been wanting to read/watch all year. Hit up the local library or bookstore and pick up a few new books to dive into. For movies, you could have fun themed movie days like "Superhero Day" where you watch superhero films or "Pixar Day" with all your favorite Pixar animations. My friends and I went through the entire Harry Potter series one year!
Make sure you prepare plenty of reading/movie snacks like popcorn, candy, and cookies. You could even build a cozy pillow fort to watch in! Just be sure to give your eyes a break from screens every once in a while.
Learn a New Skill
What better time to pick up a new hobby or skill than when you have a week off from school? Always wanted to learn an instrument? Use the holiday to take music lessons and practice playing guitar, piano, drums, or whatever you're interested in. Like being active? Sign up for a martial arts, dance, rock climbing, or other sports class. If you prefer indoor activities, look for art, cooking, coding, or foreign language lessons in your area.
Starting something new and creative is a fun way to spend your free time.
No matter what you decide to try, stick with it each day to build up your skills. By the end of the week, you'll have accomplished something great! Andmaybe you'll find a new passion to keep pursuing.
Host a Staycation
If your family doesn't have any big travel plans, why not create an amazing "staycation" at home? One idea is to have themed days where you learn about and experience a different culture each day. For example, on Mexico Day you could watch Mexican movies, listen to mariachi music, make tacos and horchata for meals, and teach each other Spanish words. Get really decked out in sombreros and ponchos too!
For Hawaii Day, you could make leis, practice hula dancing, eat Hawaiian dishes like kalua pork and pineapple, and have a big luau party in the backyard complete with grass skirts and ukulele music. You'll feel like you've travelled the world...without leaving town!
Another fun staycation idea is to have a Camper Day where you transform the living room into an elaborate camping setup
with tents, fake campfires (using videos, lights and sound effects) and pretend to make s'mores and tell campfire stories. Maybe even sleep in the "tents" that night! Plenty of creativity is needed to pull off an epic staycation.
No matter how you choose to spend your May holiday, the most important thing is to plan ahead so you don't waste your free time. Make a schedule at the beginning of the week, but also leave room for spontaneous fun and relaxation. That's what vacations are all about! With a bit of creativity and effort, your May holiday can be memorable and amazing.。
