Labor day is fast approaching. Got any plans for the long weekend? Though traditionally Labor Day has been celebrated as a signal of the end of summer, today it is perceived as a day of rest. And don’t we all need a little bit of that? So what are your plans this year? (Find about more about Labor Day at Wikipedia.)

Here are some fun ideas for a memorable holiday:

1)

Have a barbecue! Take advantage of the warm weather while it’s still here and invite everyone over for another barbecue.

2) If you don’t feel like cooking burgers and hot dogs, how about baking them? FamilyFun has another great recipe for cupcakes this one topped with hamburgers and hot dogs.

3) Check out what’s going on in your neighborhood and places outside of where you live. In Burlington, N.C. for example, you can listen to music and go camping, try fishing and go on horse-drawn wagon rides at the The Bass Mountain Bluegrass Festival.

4) Hire someone to plan the best vacation for you. Children’s Concierge creates personalized vacations for families in various cities around the world that can include going to a museum, afternoon tea, concerts and even more.
