Now that "winter" is over, we can jump into one of our favorite times of year - spring! It's hard to pick just one favorite thing to do in March, so here are a few - the 2020 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo kicks off with another great musical lineup and tons to do for the whole family, The Rink at Discovery Green opens as Houston's coolest spot to roller skate, and of course, this month we have much-needed spring break. 

This month enjoy a free flick at the park in The Woodlands, the 10th Annual Houston Palestinian Festival with cultural food, music, and fun, and a chance to see your favorite animated pups at Paw Patrol Live! And before you know it, summer will be here, so get ahead of the game by browsing the best summer camps Houston has to offer, from science to outdoor fun.

Read on for more fun things to do this month with the kids.

Hidden in plain sight, appropriately enough, in L’Enfant Plaza is the newly reconstituted International Spy Museum DC. And what adventures little eyes can spy at this tween and teen showplace.

The International Spy Museum is, in fact, a museum dedicated to espionage. The Spy Museum houses the largest collection of spy-related relics ever put on display, and its collection tripled in size shortly before its 2019 relocation to L’Enfant Plaza, near DC's Smithsonian museums.

This low-tech invisible ink science experiment lets kids send secret messages to friends and family. All they'll need is a little lemon juice or milk. We decided to try both versions of this invisible ink experiment to see if the results were any different. 

Commonly found household items make up the ingredient list, including juice, milk, honey, and vinegar. At room temperature, these compound liquids are colorless, making them perfect for invisible ink fun. Put them in contact with heat and the oxidization process turns them various shades of brown, aka, the ink appears! Read on for step-by-step instructions on how to make invisible ink with your kids.
