The Top 5 Ways to Celebrate Family Day - the Whitby Way 

Whitby is bringing fun and interactive Family Day experiences to you and your family. On Monday, February 15, gather the family members you live with and celebrate together in new ways.

Keep the kids entertained and make memories with one (or all five) of the following activities:

Family Day Neighbourhood Scavenger Hunt

Enjoy an outdoor scavenger hunt in your neighbourhood. The easiest way to participate is to open the scavenger hunt on your mobile device, follow a series of ten clues, then submit photos of the items (max 10MB) and answers right in the browser for a chance to win one of four prizes.

You can also complete the scavenger hunt on a computer or tablet once you’re back home.

The deadline to enter is Tuesday, February 16 at midnight. Please only hunt with members of your own household and practice physical distancing from others while outdoors.

Family Day Trivia Challenge – available February 11

Make some popcorn, gather together in the living room and test your knowledge with Whitby’s Family Day Trivia at home.

Watch together on a tablet or mirror the trivia questions on your T.V. for a unique game-show experience.

There are 60 family-friendly questions to answer. How many will you get right?

Take the Whitby Lego Challenge

Lego is a classic toy that can keep kids (and adults) busy for hours. This Family Day spend quality time together and let your imagination run wild with a family Lego build. If you’re looking for inspiration - we would love to see what your ideal Lego Town looks like!

Share your photos with @TownofWhitby on social media using #whitbyfamilyday.

Enjoy the Outdoors Together

February is a great month to get outside in your neighbourhood and enjoy winter activities. Experience the Town's beautiful natural environment by walking or hiking some of our 60 km of local trails in your neighbourhood with your family.

Visit Connect Whitby to drop a pin on our interactive map and share your favourite place to walk (or see where others have dropped their pins to discover new routes to explore as a family).

Enjoy Dinner as a Family

Can’t decide what to make for dinner this Family Day? Support local by ordering take-out from one of Whitby’s many restaurants. Why not make it fancy and break out the tablecloth and fine china? Or plan a virtual Zoom dinner with a family member or friend – make it special by sending them a dinner invite and ordering a meal to their doorstep.
