The month of May is National Bike Month, and it's a BIG DEAL in The Woodlands. Time to oil up those bicycle chains, air up the tires, and hit the road! Whether you have a mountain bike, an electric bike, or a cruiser, a $100 bicycle from Walmart or something more in the neighborhood of $2K from a specialty bike shop, this is your month to take to the trails or to the open road and spend some time biking. May brings plenty of sunshine and a slight breeze, so all you'll need is a water bottle!

This month, The Woodlands Township has a myriad of biking activities for families of all sizes. There are village group rides, children's events, workshops, a Bike & Roll to School Day, and more.

Have you visited the Barbara Bush library in Spring? It's part of Harris County Public Library System and offers a ton of activities for the community such as storytimes, open mic nights, teen crafts, computer classes, book clubs, puppet shows, and so much more!

Yes, there are several libraries closer for Woodlands-area readers (the South County Library on Lake Robbins Dr is just a few minutes away from home for me), but I don’t mind driving further sometimes to take advantage of a community program that’s awesome and free (and ALL the programs at the library are free).

Happy Easter! At WoodlandsMommy.com, we believe that Jesus is the reason for the season! That's why we're pleased to bring you this curated list of churches in our area that would like to welcome you to their seasonal services. Please note that most Christian churches will be having at least one Easter service, so we encourage you to look beyond our list to find one that resonates well with your family. We have not included every local church below; rather, we've chose only a handful of churches as a starting point for your Easter services search. He is risen!

Break out the cute pastel-colored dresses and three-piece suits, and get read to smile for photos, have creative fun, and hunt for eggs. The Easter Bunny is hopping along his trail towards The Woodlands! It's one of the most fun holidays to celebrate in our area, especially for families with little ones, as local businesses host events for several weeks leading up Resurrection Sunday which, this year, is March 31. In addition to the events below, don't forget that many Woodlands-area restaurants will be serving up a delicious Easter Brunch, so be sure to check out our guide to Easter Brunch / Dinnner.

Have you heard of Carolina Creek’s overnight summer camp? It isn’t a Vacation Bible School away from home. It’s a summer camp for kids, offering a wide range of exciting activities and events connecting fun and faith! The best news (in our opinion) is that it's located in Hunstville, TX, only a short drive from The Woodlands, so it's an easy-to-access summer camp for our readers, especially if you're feeling a bit uneasy about your child being away from home.
