The really cold, dreary, endlessly wet days of winter are but a distant memory. Back in February when I was pining for summer, I completely forgot just how BUSY the morning, noon, and nights of June, July, and August can be! There is just so much to do and so many places to see and friends to play with. And, well, I am loving every minute of it! And my girls are sleeping better than ever; a clear indication that they approve of our busy schedule, too!
The good news is that we still have more than two month before the autumnal equinox, and after such a crummy winter and spring, I just know Mother Nature has a beautiful summer planned for us! I hope that statement is seen as optimism and not a jinx!
Macaroni Kid is here to help you make the most of the summer and plan for the extra time with your kiddos! Our event listings are overflowing with fun activiities as well as many options for family outings.
