As the weather begins to cool, more and more activities will move indoors. But there’s still lots to do. Here are some of our top picks for September.
Come splash the day away at Adaptive Preschool Puddle Splashers on September 4, at 5:00 pm. This is a great opportunity for special needs preschoolers to enjoy supervised play in one of the most fun elements of nature: water. Prepare to get wet, muddy and happy. Registration required.
