We've assembled a weekly calendar of kid-friendly activities and new places to try out 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.
Look for the kids’ planner each Wednesday, and help us build the planner with your own suggestions and tips — just add them to the comment box. Even if you disagree with our picks, let us know. We want to hear from you!
Basketball games, movies at the library, a romp in the park, pancake breakfast — pick and choose from this week’s array of events.

It's always helpful to teach children to give, recycle, donate and help others. It's an activity many children do not learn early enough. Many families enjoy spending their time giving and helping. It's how we grow as a community.
