What To Do With Your Preschooler - Part Two

Here are some more ideas for preschooler/parent fun while older siblings are in school!

Cultural

The Atlanta History Center has Magic Mondays one Monday per month. The program is for kids ages 18 months - 5 years from 10:30 -11:30. Click the link for dates and themes. The cost is $5.00 for children and $6.00 for adults.

The Center for Puppetry Arts is showing The Adventures of Little Noodle on Fridays from August 14 - September 11 at 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. If you can make it today (Thursday, August 13) the preview performance is half price: $8.00. Regular price is $16.00, which includes the museum and puppet-making following the performance (highly recommended!). Besides, you are right down the street from the Varsity for lunch!

Imagine It! Children's Museum is recommended for kids 8 and under, so now might be a good time to visit if you have older kids. Through September 13, the main exhibit is Exploring Trees: Inside and Out.
