Planning Your Spring Staycation in Waco or Harker Heights

By Stonehaven Dental & Orthodontics | March 16, 2018

Spring is an excellent time to plan a staycation. Children often receive some time off from school and the worst of the winter weather has typically passed! Spring weather makes it an inviting time to spend time outside and planning activities with some transportation are more doable and comfortable.

A staycation can be an ideal way to have a lot of fun while still staying close to home, and Waco or Harker Heights has a lot to offer its residents.

If you are planning your spring staycation in Waco or Harker Heights, here are a few activities to explore.

Local and State Park Trails

Spending some time in nature can be great for your mental health and, by hitting the trails, you can also get some exercise along the way. You can ride bikes, rollerblade, or even take a simple walk. Have the photography bug? Then bring a camera or your smartphone to capture special moments along the way.

You can actually spend an entire day in the park if you plan properly. Don’t feel like you have to rush the experience, pack some drinks and a picnic lunch and bring a cooler or picnic basket along for the ride!

Indoor Swimming Lessons

If your summer plans involve lots of time at the pool or beach and you or your child aren’t the most confidence swimmers, then spring is the perfect time for indoor swimming lessons. Usually, you can find classes at local YMCAs or Natatoriums, giving you a chance to hone your skills before summer. Since everything is indoors, it’s all temperature controlled. Enjoy swimming this spring without having to worry about getting chilly while you learn.

Movie Days

For days when the weather isn’t on your side, consider having a movie day. Whether you decide to catch a matinee at the local theater or host a marathon in your home, simply grab some drinks and popcorn, kick back, and enjoy the show.

Catch Up on Appointments

We all know how easy it is to fall behind on key appointments during the school year or when you’re working, so your spring staycation may be the ideal time to catch up. If you’ve missed a medical or dental checkup, considering scheduling them during your time off. After all, you won’t be at work, and your kids are out of school, making it the perfect time to get these handled.

The Waco or Harker Heights area has a lot to offer, so why not plan a spring staycation and enjoy some fun without having to leave home. It can be an ideal way to relax and spend time together as a family or just catch up on those appointments you’ve been meaning to handle.

Sammy, Connor, the front desk staff, Dental Hygenist and especially Dr. Town are amazing! It’s great to see the same faces everyone I get a cleaning! Sammy makes the experience comfortable and welcome. Connor may be quiet but he always does a great job! The dental hygienist always remembers me and my kids. Sorry I cant remember her name but she knows who I am and that’s what matters:) Thankful for this staff and the great care they give to my family!

I love it here. I have never seen a dental office give flowers to first timers. Everyone was so welcome if. In pain but you guys still made me smile. I told my daughter she need to come there. I love how you guys work with options of payment. Again thanks for making me smile in pain.

We’ve always had a good experience at Stonehaven. The women at the front desk are always cheerful and helpful. I love the hygienists, they always make my children and I feel comfortable and informed. I have pretty high dental anxiety and they’ve never tried to minimize my fears- but they listen to me, and help me feel as comfortable as possible. The dentists and orthodontists have been great! No issues at all. (I just wish my daughter was better at flossing, but we’re working on that!)
