For spring, I would usually go Airsoft-shooting with my friends. It’s fun because you get a lot of exercise. You also get to shoot the new Airsoft guns you get.

If you ask me, I would say I would go to the Airsoft park on a Saturday, because there’s not that many people who go there. I would also go camping and pick strawberries with my mom and dad. Well, thanks for reading. Bye.

Do you like spring break? I do. I love the way the leaves fall and the smell of summer on its way. The best time to go dirt bike riding is in spring. We could cook marshmallows and watch basketball on TV. What I love the most is video games. And this is what I do over spring break.

My favorite thing about spring is camping. I smell the fresh spring breeze in the air as I go fishing. I love camping because you get to go outdoors, see nature and maybe see baby animals.

Hippity hoppity, here comes Easter and the Easter Bunny with eggs. I also like spring because of Easter. I like Easter because of all the colorful eggs, Easter-egg hunts and tye-dye eggs. Also, my favorite thing about Easter is seeing my aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents.

The thing I like about spring most is the warm weather. The warm weather is good because you can wear shorts, a T-shirt and sandals. Another thing I like about spring is spring vacation. I like spring vacation because we go to Gorman to ride dirt bikes. That’s what I like best about spring.

What I like about spring is the new animals. The other thing is Easter for hunting eggs. Now it will finally be warmer outside so I can be warm again. I can go swimming again. The fresh scent of new flowers. So spring is here.

For spring, I like to go to the park and play soccer with my friends. I also like to go to my friends house and go to parties.
Since I am Peruvian, I go to my grandma’s house and she cooks lomo saltado, which is Peruvian, and it is really good.

In spring, I go to the beach a lot, because my cousin has a beach house, so we go there.

Sometimes in spring, I go to Arizona to meet my cousins. They used to live in California, but they moved.

I can’t wait until spring again!

Hi! I’m Lauryn. I love so much about spring that I don’t know where to start on what I love. I love the way the leaves on the trees change color and how the birds start to sing.

One of my favorite things is spring break. I go fishing with my family and camping, too. At my camping place that I go to, there are little prairie dogs there, and every time I go, I feed them. So that’s all my favorite things to do. Oh, I almost forgot this, every season or spring my hair gets lighter or darker. What’s your favorite thing about spring?

My favorite thing about spring is spring break because you get to stay out of school. School can be fun, but during spring break, you get to sleep in. You get to go outside and feel the warmer weather. It’s not too rainy in spring. I also love to go to the store and buy the fresh berries. Spring is fun, because it has one of my favorite holidays, which is Easter. I like to go Easter-egg hunting.

My favorite thing about the springtime is that I have no school because of spring vacation, and of course, I can go swimming because of the warm weather, which also brings beautiful flowers to my garden and all the other gardens in the neighborhood.

Oh, I almost forgot — in the spring, I usually go hiking. Well, now, I didn’t forget to say anything. Well, till next time and remember that is what I like about springtime and have a great spring vacation.

In spring, my favorite thing is volleyball. Volleyball is fun and energetic. I think swimming is fun, too. Plus there’s spring break, so I get a week off of school. Also in spring, I like to go shopping for shorts and put my hair up. Springtime is also fun for going to the park because of the perfect weather. Those are my favorite things about spring. Also, spring is my favorite season because of Easter and the weather.

The things I like about the spring is that it gets warmer and flowers bloom. You can also smell the fresh air of nature. When it starts getting warm, it’s my favorite thing about spring because you can do so many things, like: hiking, shopping, playing outside in the sun and swimming.

My other favorite thing about spring is spring break, a whole week off of school. Great! I can’t wait till spring break is here.
That’s why I love spring, because it’s not that cold in the spring or summer. Those are my favorite things about spring.

In my opinion, I think spring is the best season of the year. It’s my favorite season because of the colorful flowers. The tulips, roses and other flowers look so beautiful in my mom’s garden.

I also like the wonderful climate because I can wear shorts. Lastly, I like spring break because I can hang out with friends and go swimming. Those are my favorite things about spring.
