The animals rule this week's list of things to do in Florida February 3, 4, 5, 2012 with the 4th Annual Florida Week for the Animals. Yes fellow humans, we let the dogs out this time along with the cats, birds and other Florida critters both wild and domestic as we celebrate the joy and wonder of the state's animal life. Florida Week for the Animals offers us the opportunity to become personally involved with many organizations providing education on how we can make life better for both Florida's animals and for ourselves. So click the link at the top of the list and make this event one of your top things to do in Florida for February 3, 4, 5, 2012. Also be sure to check out Florida's State Parks giving you and your family a convenient and affordable way to explore not only the flora and fauna of our state, but also a range of fun activities from bike rides to concerts. Concert you say? Yes concerts, and there are at least two not to miss this coming weekend with Jimmy Buffett on stage at at the Amway Center in Orlando February 4th while another of Florida's own, The Florida Orchestra will be offering one of the world's most beloved works, Vivaldi's Four Seasons in both Tampa and Clearwater on the 3rd and 4th, so get your tickets now. Uh - hello? .... NOWWW! And for the animal in YOU, get revved up before for the BIG GAME by scrolling down this list of things to do in Florida February 3, 4, 5, 2012 to MONSTER JAM!

Things to do in Florida January 6, 7, 8, 2012

Still plenty of things to do in Florida January 6, 7, 8, 2012 beginning with an event designed not only to help burn off those Christmas and New Year's calories, but to lend a hand to animals in need as well. Sponsored by the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office, the 'Run for the Animals and Family Fun Day' at Okeeheelee Park in West Palm Beach, Florida is a great way for you and your family to kick off the new year. Other things to do in Florida January 6, 7, 8, 2012 include some of Florida's premier art shows, such as 'Downtown Naples New Year's Weekend Art Fair' as well as the '24th Annual Las Olas Art Fair' in Fort Lauderdale Jan 7th and 8th. These and other art shows make it one of best times for viewing some of the finest creations you'll see in Florida all year. Many music events are also on the list this week featuring legendary artists such as the one and only Johnny Mathis appearing in Melbourne and Naples, FL. Even a rare pair of kings will take the stage with blues guitarist B.B. King in Fort Myers, FL while "The King of Rock and Roll" himself, Elvis the Pelvis Presley receives dazzling birthday tributes in various location in the state. Lastly, for those in and around the Daytona Beach area this weekend, this list of things to do in Florida January 6, 7, 8, 2012 is a very short list indeed. Time to round up the kids 'cause the Daytona MONSTER X TOUR IS BACK!!!   Y'all have fun.
