Weekday Picks for Boston Kids: LEGO, Free Concerts and More, March 9-13
Boston is gearing up for spring this week with the colorful displays at the Boston Flower and Garden Show, along with the first events to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. While the only way we'll see green on our lawns is if we color the snow, our March GoList can distract with some not-to-be-missed events, including Free Film Fridays happening at the Museum of Science every Friday in March.
Other highlights this week include the Little Naturalists: Raccoons nature program for preschoolers, the Where I Live/Là où j’habite show, put on by Montréal's "Words of Dynamite" theater company, and two free concerts. Read on for our picks of the week, and don't forget to check out the full events calendar!
OUR LATEST VIDEOS
Monday – Library Lego Time at the Cambridge Library is a great chance for kids ages five and up to design and build amazing LEGO structures with new friends.
Tuesday – Preschoolers in the Little Naturalists: Raccoons program in Marshfield learn all about these animals through nature walks, stories, songs, and crafts.
Wednesday – Families can participate in upbeat songs and musical stories at a free Liz Buchanan Concert in Arlington. North Shore princesses might enjoy a special Children's Tea with Snow White at the Wenham Tea House.
Thursday – Where I Live/Là où j’habite opens at the Puppet Showplace Theater in Brookline, exploring the wonder of the places we inhabit. If you want to get a jump on St. Patrick's Day celebrations, a drop-in St. Patrick 's Day craft at the Mattapan Branch of the Boston Public Library might fit the bill.
Friday – Kids can follow the clues to find the answers to the riddles that are part of the Curious George Store's St. Patty's Day Rainbow Hunt. This event is free, but advance registration is required. Another fun and free event is the Alastair Moock Concert at Melrose Memorial Hall.
