25 Things To Do With Kids in Cohasset, MA

Cohasset may be small, but it sure does pack a punch when it comes to kid-friendly activities. Nestled on the South Shore, Cohasset is a quaint and friendly community full of active, happy families. I've heard it described as like living in a Norman Rockwell painting. With its beautiful scenery, adorable town, and no divided highway to speak of, it's also a wonderful place to visit with kids. These are my top 25 picks for things to do with kids in this lovely town by the sea. (Be careful—you may never want to leave!)

Weekday Event Picks for LA Kids: Fiesta, Disney Channel, & Grunion Running, May 4-8

While the significance of Cinco de Mayo is indeed obscure, any holiday centered on the consumption of Mexican food and piñata festivities is okay by me. Mix up a batch of guacamole, and let the kids press some homemade tortillas. Grown-ups can get some special treats at Duff's Cakemix's P.S. I Made This Cinco-DIY-Mayo event, which involves crafting and margaritas, or the whole family can celebrate the day wandering Olvera Street. Save your late night, though, for Wednesday May 6, when the grunion run by moonlight at the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium. Read on for more of our picks for the week.

Weekday Picks for Boston Kids: Free Fun and Kate DiCamillo, May 4-8

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love free things. I often plan my week around the free events I can hit with my family, and—true confession—I've even started planning ahead for free things to do this summer around town. This past weekend, my family and I spent an afternoon enjoying free events and museum admission at the Harvard ArtsFirst Festival, and this upcoming week is also filled with tons of no-cost activities. From a concert to a big book signing to museum visits, there are plenty of great ways to have a good time without breaking the bank. It's especially fun to get out now that it's May and finally starting to feel like spring.
