At Lifeview Financial, our team is family oriented. The Covid-19 pandemic of the past two years certainly has brought the importance of family home to all of us. As we celebrate this Family Day, we encourage you to spend some quality time doing something fun with your family and/or your friends - who inexplicably are your chosen family. Here are some inspirational fun-filled ideas to make the most out of February in Canada. 

• bake your favourite cookies 

• take your kids to the Zoo 

• have a marathon game night with some “old classics” 

• personalize your favourite snowman or fort 

• go skiing, snowshoeing, tobogganing – enjoy the great outdoors 

• take your favourite puppy, spouse or child for a walk – stop for some hot chocolate 

• have a bonfire 

• skating – anywhere, but on the Rideau Canal in Ottawa is lots of fun (even if you have done it before) 

• donate some of your winter clothes you are not wearing 

• make paper snowflake cutouts 

• make a birdfeeder out of pinecones, peanut butter and birdseed – place near your window and enjoy the show 

• find a favourite Netflix series you’ve been meaning to watch and binge watch it together (with popcorn of course!) 

At the end of the day or weekend…whatever you decide to do make it memorable! 

“Memories are not created from things you said 

you would do….they are built from things you have done.”
