Grab & Go Kids Planner
Free cake pops, lovable lizards and flying wrestlers rule this weekend.
For you, dear Patchers with tiny Patchers, we’ve assembled a weekly calendar of kid-friendly activities, places and events. Each week, we will feature 5 family-focused ideas to help you plan your week. We know how busy life with kids can be, so we're happy to do the legwork for you and find fun things to do and places to go, both locally and within reasonable striking distance.
We also include links to help you learn more about the places and events listed. Click around to get more information such as phone numbers and addresses. It is our goal to make the planner as reliable as possible, but keep in mind, some events change at the last minute.
This weekend, your family can eat free Red Velvet Whoopie Pies, watch a wrestler fly from the top of the ropes and see which of you is best at laser tag.
