Across the Island, it's Kids Day at the Hampton Classic Horse Show. With typical festival activities like facepainting and a petting zoo, the best part about this Kids Day is that your kids go FREE and you can actually catch some great events, like the Junior/Amateur Show (that's equestrian talk for regular kids that own horses and compete for the love of the sport). It's a really fun day becuase you can enjoy the events, but when the kids get bored you can hit the festival atmosphere across the barn. For more information, check out their website here. 

Saturday, August 29

Down on the South Shore you can check out the Long Island Maritime Museum's Annual Seafood Festival. If for no reason other than consuming great seafood by the shore before the season ends, you should go. But besides the seafood, there is plenty of family entertainment including live music and cool maritime exhibits the kids will dig. For more information and a schedule of events, click here.
