]]> When the Liberal government was elected late last year, one of the promises that Dalton McGuinty made to Ontarians was that he would create another statutory holiday for them to participate in.

The result of that promise is Family Day, a provincial holiday that will be occuring next Monday, February 18th. 

Because the point of Family Day is supposedly for people to spend time with their families, I thought I’d put together a short list of things that you can do on Family Day should you wish to leave the house or hotel and go out on the town.  Now, this is by no means an exhaustive list, but it is one that should get you started if you are thinking about something to do.

Gadgets & Gizmos – A Family Day activity at the Ontario Science Centre

The Family Day Long Weekend – An exploration of family fun in a way that only the Royal Ontario Museum can do it

Family Day at the CN Tower - A celebration of family at Canada’s tallest building

50% Off – A discount off the regular price at the Metro Toronto Zoo

Free Admission for Children - Children get in free on Monday at Casa Loma when accompanied by a paying adult
