Long Island Kids' Activities January 5 and 6: "Simple Gifts," "Blue's Clues Live," and Trout Birthday Party
Happy New Year! As we settle back in to life as usual following the holidays, kids (and parents) may experience a small let-down. Never fear, there are plenty of activities going on around the Island to keep the kids entertained and spirits up. There's a beautiful marionette show at the Tilles Center, a few nature activities at a couple of state parks in Suffolk County, and a trout birthday party at the Cold Spring Harbor Fish Hatchery. Enjoy, and we wish you a healthy, happy new year.
