Grab & Go Kids Planner: March 10 through March 16
Parents and kids will benefit from all that's happening in and around Kensington this week for the family.
It's Wednesday, and that means it's time to check out our Grab & Go Kids Planner to see what Kensington has to offer kids and families this week. As always, we'd love to hear from you if there are any local, family-friendly events that we missed. Let us know, and we'll be sure to keep an eye out for them in the future.
This week, parents have a chance to learn as much as the kids do. Your kids will have a great time building on the great people they already are at some of these events, and you won't have to travel too far.
Look at what's going on in and around Kensington that we think your family will love:
