Weekday Event Picks for LA Kids: Pajama Time, King Arthur, & Star Gazing, January 12-16

I know it sounds a bit bizarre, but in Camelot, that’s how conditions are. As the rest of the country braces for winter storms, our little Angelenos are ice skating on the beach and continue to enjoy plenty of outdoor fun at places like the South Coast Botanical Gardens.

Still. It is winter, and that’s a good time to snuggle up in your jammies at the Torrance Library’s Pajama-Rama. In Thousand Oaks, Theater League presents Lerner and Lowe’s Camelot. This is a great way to introduce girls and boys to the joys of musical theater.
