From Purim to St. Patrick's Day and the arrival of spring, March is a great time to get out and enjoy Atlanta! 

As we spring forward into March and days get warmer, families can enjoy outdoor events like the Atlanta St. Patrick's Day Parade with floats, bagpipes and, of course, lots of green! Purim falls in early March this year and families have several parades and festivals to choose from like the Purim Carnival with a Cause in north Atlanta. Fans of the Harlem Globetrotters have two opportunities to see the awesome antics of the basketball stars--one in Duluth at Gas South Arena and another at State Farm Arena in downtown Atlanta. We are also super excited for March 31, when LEGO Discovery Center at Phipps Plaza reopens after a $5 million dollar renovation. 

March is a great time to take a well-deserved vacay to a family-friendly destination. We have a bajillion ideas in our Family Travel Guide, like Charleston, SC and West Palm Beach, FL. We love to check out cool Atlanta attractions and fun spots and give you all the scoop. We recently visited Atlanta's Center for Puppetry Arts and have lots of insights and tips to share. Have kids that like to climb and jump? (Who doesn't?) Then you will definitely want to check out our list of Ninja Warrior Gyms and Parkour Spots Around Atlanta.  

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

Presidents Day weekend in Atlanta means a day (or five) off from school, which could equal lots of family time. To keep everyone entertained (and off screens), we've come up with 24 Fun Things to Do for February's Winter Break in Atlanta. If ice skating has been on your winter bucket list, do it this weekend because several rinks, like Ice Days in Covington, end their runs on Sunday. Fans of Hello Kitty will squeal (or maybe meow?) with delight because the Hello Kitty Cafe Truck is returning to Atlantic Station on Saturday for a one-day event with treats and more. 

Atlanta made Harry Potter: The Exhibition feel so welcome that the event has decided to extend its stay here through April 16, 2023! Before you take your own muggles to the experience, check out our Guide to Harry Potter: The Exhibition Atlanta with plenty of know-before-you-go tips. If you've got family or friends visiting, or if you just want to pack in lots of Atlanta fun, take a look at the ultimate Itinerary of Three Days in Atlanta with Kids from a Local.
