I remember the very first Family Day weekend. I loved having an extra day to spend with my family. You really do appreciate time together once you have kids in your life to spend those days with.
Because we live in the best province in Canada, there is lots of fun to choose from on Family Day. To make it easier to plan something amazing, we pulled all of the events together for you in one easy-to-use list.

That’s Not All!
Don’t feel like you need to attend an official Family Day event, there are lots of other things you can do with your kids to make some memories. Movie theatres will be open and so will the Toronto Zoo. Ice skate on one of these outdoor ice rinks.
Many of these popular attractions are open to welcome families. Enjoy the great outdoors with a kid-approved hike through nature. Maybe some cross-country skiing? Or expend some energy tobogganing at these local hills.
