Looking for the best things to do in Atlanta this Mother's Day weekend? Here are some family-friendly events and activities to add to your weekend list! 

The main event of Mother's Day weekend is...MOM! If mom is into art, we've rounded up several art festivals on Mother's Day weekend in Atlanta -- head to the Dunwoody Art Festival or Chastain Arts Festival. These beloved Atlanta festivals offer activities for adults and kids (bounce houses, face painting, arts & crafts). Moms with sons can spend some quality time at the Sandy Springs Mother Son Dance; outdoorsy moms head to the Chatthoochee Nature Center for its annual Mother's Day Family Canoe Trip; and sporty moms can spend a few hours at the Chik-fil-A College Football Hall of Fame.

It's not too late to book a Mother's Day Brunch at an Atlanta restaurant that mom (and kids) will love. We love mommies at Mommy Poppins!
