Weekday Picks for Boston Kids: Pluto Flyby & Artbeat, July 13-17
We at Mommy Poppins Boston have discovered another great spot to bring your kids during July: the Street at Chestnut Hill. You can find great activities for kids every Tuesday afternoon through the summer (pictured), as well as one-time events like the upcoming Table Tennis Tournament. Also starting on Tuesday, look for some events around town to celebrate the New Horizons flyby of Pluto. Young scientists aren't going to want to miss out! For those with their feet firmly on Earth, there's no shortage of fun summer festivals this week, whether music or art is your cup of tea. Have a great week, and don't forget to check out the full Event Calendar!
