Weekend Fun: Bunny Breakfast, Dia:Beacon Free Day, Peppa Pig

3/27/19 - By Susan Miele

A highlight of the coming weekend is the chance to have Breakfast with the Easter Bunny—one of many FREE programs we’ve chosen for our top picks and one of more than a dozen Easter Bunny events we've identified). Another fun freebie is a puppet show with the Tanglewood Marionettes, while older kids can explore STEAM-focused colleges and careers at the FREE Engineering Expo.

If you’ve been unsure how to celebrate National Jump in Muddy Puddles Day, look no further, as Party with Peppa has the answer. Or take advantage of the weekend-long Maple Fest, as with the end of March comes the end of the maple-sugaring season.

After reading on for all this and more, head to our Event Calendar for additional fun options to choose from. To stay up to date with everything kid-related in our area, be sure to sign up for our newsletters and follow us on Facebook.
