Presidents? Day, the holiday designated to honor the birthdays of US presidents past and present, is Monday, February 18th.? The holiday was originally established to celebrate the birthday of our first president, George Washington, but later changed to honor all US presidents and to always fall on the third Monday of February, giving us a three-day weekend.
Grab the kids for a family get-away, or book a babysitter and slip away for a romantic weekend jaunt. Where to go? If you?re on the East Coast and looking to escape after the storm, check out Atlantis in the Bahamas. The place is phenomenal for families ? water slides, aquarium, awesome kids clubs and endless food options ? and their adults-only enclave, The Cove, is heaven for time away without the kids.? They have an amazing deal going on so you can go tropical without doing too much damage to your budget.
From the West Coast, why not go south and rent a place on the beach while you can still grab an off-season rental rate, or even better, recruit another family or two to go in on a rental at Northern California?s Sea Ranch?on the Sonoma Coast.?What better time of year to get away and reset your buttons?

Make a cake and eat it, too.
Pay a bit of homage to our presidents by getting your kids in the kitchen and baking a birthday cake together. If your kids are young, this task alone could fill a day!? Use a boxed cake mix to keep it simple and let little ones decorate to their hearts? content. Instead of party hats, make and wear Lincoln Top Hats or a George Washington powdered wig. These tutorials make for fun and easy crafts to do with kids.
If you aren?t one of the lucky ones who have a day off for President?s Day, UrbanSitter has many babysitters willing to watch the kids while you?re at work. And, there are plenty of sitters here who would love a weekend job ? so go ahead and get away, if you can!
