February GoList: The Best Things to Do With Long Island Kids
Submitted by Kimberly Rae Miller on
February doesn't get enough credit. Sure, it's a short month and a little (a lot!) on the chilly side, but there's so much to celebrate. February is one big party, especially this year, when we get an extra day to enjoy.
Start the month off by celebrating the Lunar New Year with Chinese cultural celebrations in Stony Brook, and Port Washington, and Locust Valley. And then quickly find out from Holtsville Hal, Long Island's favorite Groundhog, whether or not to expect an early spring. And don't forget to root for your favorite team on Superbowl Sunday!
Mid-month, we'll celebrate those we care for on Valentine's Day, followed by a week off from school that kids will really love. It's never too early, or too late, to sign them up for enriching President's Week Break classes and camps.
And before things thaw out for good, celebrate the final days of winter at Sag Harbor's annual winter celebration or the inaugural Port Jefferson Village Ice Festival.
