Things to do with the kids this weekend:
Go tobogganing!
There are only a handful of weekends left where the snow will still be good for old fashion toboganning! Get those sleds out and find a hill with the family.
Finding a hill:
- The city of Edmonton’s tobogganing hills can be found here on their website
- Find a hidden gem closer to home: join a parenting or community group on Facebook and ask locals about awesome hills in your specific area
Ie: North Side Hub, Edmonton Moms Community Group, Edmonton South Moms Group, Northwest Edmonton Community Group, etc
Tubing time slots are sold out at Sunridge and the Edmonton Ski Club, but watch for possible dates opening for more bookings (weather dependent) around Mid March!
