Grab & Go Kids Planner: Pizza, Hiking Trails and Teen Events

Activities to keep your kids busy for the week.

We've assembled a weekly calendar of kid-friendly activities and new places to try for families with children. Each week, we'll give you the details on the 5 best family activities for the week.

We know you are busy, so we're happy to do the research for you and find fun things to do and places to go, both locally and within reasonable striking distance. It is our goal to make the planner as reliable as possible, but keep in mind, some events change at the last minute.

We have also included links to help you learn more details about the places and events listed. Click around to get more information like pertinent phone numbers and addresses.
