EASY IDEAS FOR A PRODUCTIVE SPRING

                   Spring is in the air.
                   The weather is warming up and the trees are starting to bud with flowers.
                   After such a long, harsh winter, I bet you weren't expecting that, were you?
                   No matter the circumstances, spring is here ---- and we need to prepare for it!
                   Here are just a few ways to greet the new season:
Replace your clothes
                   After months of wearing sweatpants, heavy winter coats, boots, and other winter accessories, it's time to put those clothes away.  Hide all of your winter clothes and break out your old spring attire.  If you've outgrown them, go to the mall and start investing in short sleeves, shorts and flip-flops!
Clean up
                   We've all heard of spring cleaning, so let's put our words into actions!  Clean out everything from under your bed, get rid of clothes that don't fit you, clean off your desk, organize your closet, vacuum your floor, wipe your windows, put new sheets on the bed, etc.  If you don't have screens in your windows, put them in so you can open your window during the warmer days.
Set goals for the new season
                    Since swimsuit season is coming up, some people may want to get into shape for the summer.  That's just one popular example of a goal many people have during the spring season.  Your goal may pertain to school, extracurricular activities, music, your friends, or anything else.  Spring is a time for change, so think up some realistic goals for a new you!
Plant a garden
                    With your parents' permission, of course, plant some new flowers or vegetables in your backyard.  Not only does it give your backyard a splash of color, it's good for the environment.  If you choose to plant a vegetable garden, you'llbe saving the family money by harvesting your own vegetables!
                    Spring is a wonderful season and following these tips could make it even more enjoyable for you and your family.
                    Happy Spring, everyone!
