After a long winter, spring will soon arrive. Yay! The sun will begin to shine and the flowers will start to bloom. It is time to make a plan as to how you are going to enjoy this change of season. Here are my favorite Spring Bucket List ideas to get you started.
Don’t miss these other bucket lists that are perfect for spring:
Cool Bucket List Things to Do in the SpringÂ
1. ✦ Attend the Opening Day of a Baseball Game
Many baseball leagues across the world start their seasons around April – on April 1st specifically for MLB – making spring the perfect season to sit through a game. And is there any better game to check out than one on the opening day?!
2. ✦ Bake a Seasonal Pie
From apricot to cherry, spring has some of the best options for seasonal pies.  Taste of Home has a lot of excellent recipes for seasonal pies, while at Delish you’ll find over a dozen options for pies to bake for that Easter feast.

3. ✧ Climb a Tree
4. ✦ Dine Al Fresco
Dining al fresco essentially just means dining outdoors, the term deriving from Italian language. It’s an especially popular activity during the summer season, but actually you can (and should) start your al fresco dining a wee bit early.Â
5. ✦ Eat Strawberry Shortcake
Strawberry shortcake is a classic treat featuring fluffy biscuits (or sponge cake) layered with juicy strawberries and whipped cream—perfect for spring!

6. ✦ Feed the Ducks
With warmer weather comes springtime picnics and walks, perfect for feeding ducks (just swap out bread for oats, seeds, rice, or halved grapes for a healthier treat).
7. ✦ Fly a Kite
Another one of the outdoor things to do in spring is to fly a kite in the park. Don’t have a kite? Check out these cool ones:Â
8. ✧ Go Berry Picking
You can typically pick blueberries and strawberries from March until the late spring season.
9. ✦ Go Bird Watching
Spring is a migration season for birds, when birds return to the Northern hemisphere after spending the winter somewhere warm. For an extra bucket list challenge, you can buy a bird watching book to see how many you can see.

10. ✦ Go Kayaking (or Paddle Boarding)
Kayaking and paddle boarding are perfect for when the water temperatures aren’t high enough for swimming yet.
11. ✦ Go on a Spring Break Vacation
Don’t know where to go? See my Travel Bucket List that has my top 100 picks.
12. ✦ Hang a Bird Feeder
You can easily buy a bird feeder (like this adorable wooden one), but you can also make your own—I am loving this adorable DIY teacup bird feeder.
13. ✦ Have a Garage Sale
14. ✧ Throw a Garden Tea Party

15. ✦ Have a Picnic
When you go to the park to feed the ducks, by all means make a day out of it! Put together a basket of strawberry shortcake, your freshly picked strawberries or blueberries and/or whatever else that you like, plus a blanket, and find the perfect spot at the park.
16. ✦ Hike a New Trail


17. ✦ Make a Dandelion Wish
One of the best parts about dandelions is that, after their bloom, they turn into seeds that look like puffballs, which will fly away if you blow on them—and you ought to blow on them and make a wish that just might come true!
18. ✧ Paint Rocks
Painted Rocks is a fun activity perfect for home dĂ©cor, gifting, or even leaving them as a random act of kindness—and on one of my walking paths, they’ve even created a snake of painted rocks lining the path, always with fun new additions that might inspire your own creative idea.Â
19. ✦ Pick Wildflowers & Make a Bouquet
Besides dandelions, a variety of other wildflowers, many of them absolutely beautiful, pop up and bloom around the same time in the spring.Â


20. ✦ Plan the Ultimate Summer Vacation
Spring is also an excellent time to prepare for the upcoming summer. When you start your planning early enough, you’ll have the time and opportunities to create your ultimate itinerary, including booking whatever accommodation, activities or flights are needed to make it happen, before prices soar or everything gets sold out.

21. ✧ Plant a Spring Garden
No need to wait until summer comes along to start planting and preparing for your epic seasonal garden, you can definitely start it during spring.Â
22. ✧ Plant Herbs
23. ✦ Play an April Fool’s Day Prank
April Fool’s Day happens worldwide every 1st of April, so prepare to play a prank. For ideas for pranks see Best Life’s Harmless Pranks to Play.Â
24. ✦ Play in the Rain
25. ✦ Play Frisbee
Playing frisbee is another amazing sporty activity to commit to in the springtime; whether that means putting together a group of people for a round or two of ultimate frisbee or just tossing it back and forth with a close friend in your backyard.
26. ✦ Search for Four-Leaf Clovers
Four-leaf clovers are fun to search for because of two reasons. One is because they’re rarer than a three-leaf clover, and the second reason is because four-leaf clovers are said to bring luck—and who wouldn’t love to have some of that!

27. ✦ Shop at a Farmer’s Market
In the spring season specifically you can make great finds at the farmers market, like apricots, artichokes, asparagus, parsley, peas, radishes and rhubarb.Â
28. ✦ Skip Stones in a Lake
29. ✦ Spring Clean Your Space
30. ✧ Take a Tandem Bike Ride
31. ✦ Take a Road Trip
32. ✦ Walk Barefoot on the Grass
33. ✧ Walk Under the Cherry Blossoms
Even if you can’t travel all the way to Asia for them, your region might positively surprise you with some amazing cherry blossom trees of their own.Â
34. ✦ Watch the Sunrise

35. ✧ Write a Spring-Themed Haiku
Haikus—a traditional Japanese three-line poem that captures nature’s beauty in just 17 syllables—aren’t limited to any one season, but the magic of spring and nature’s renewal provide endless inspiration. Follow my “how to write a haiku” directions to get started on your own!
