Fall weekends can become monotonous if you let them. Settling in from the activity of the summer, moms and dads may be more tempted to check things off their to-do list, like cleaning, food shopping, and home projects, rather than focus on family time. But it's vital for Philly families to make time for fun. Thankfully, Mommy Poppins Philadelphia can help. Our event calendar provides plenty of ideas for family fun. Whether you can spend an entire day, or just carve out a bit of time, Philly kids appreciate the moments together.
Do your kids love Minecraft? All weekend long, gamers can immerse themselves into the world of building blocks at the Greater Oaks Expo Center. Animal lovers can visit the lions, giraffes, and monkeys at The Philadelphia Zoo or Elmwood Park Zoo during their Boo at the Zoo events. Those who want to get outdoors can play on the playground during David Pincus Extra Fun Day at Smith, see the birds overhead at Riverbend, or take a hayride in Center City at Reading Terminal Market's Harvest Festival. Museum goers can participate in scavenger hunts at Penn Museum, learn about colorful chromatography at Hagley Museum, or celebrate the uniqueness of families at Please Touch Museum's Outfest.
Do the bathrooms need to get cleaned? Does the laundry need to be washed? Yes! But make time for what is most important... spending time with a kid you love.
