Feb. 11-13: Snow, Valentine's Day and Acting Classes

The Grab & Go Kids Planner features five fantastic, family-friendly weekend events.

We've assembled a weekly calendar of kid-friendly activities and new places to try out for families with children.

Each week, we'll give you the information on the five best family activities or events for the week.

You're time-pressed enough, so we're happy to do the research and find the best things to do and places to go, both locally and within reasonable striking distance.
