Weekday Picks for Boston Kids: Open Houses, Passover Prep & More, March 23-27
What could be better during the first week of spring than a peek ahead at summer? Our Event Calendar is overflowing with summer camp open houses, including those for programs at several Pine Village Preschool locations and Steve & Kate's Camp. If the thought of summer still seems inconceivable, the Spring Demo Day at Ready, Set, Kids! includes free classes for kids of all ages.
Passover preparations are also underway this week, with a Passover Prep workshop especially for parents, as well as Let's Get Ready for Passover, which focuses on the kids. Mid-week is also a good time to bring the kids for photos with the Easter Bunny. Finally, if you haven't yet made it to the Museum of Science this month for Free Film Fridays, this is your last chance! Read on for our picks of the week, and don't forget to check out our full Event Calendar!
