Local Kid-Friendly Activities To Enjoy From March 15-17

This weekend is officially the last hurrah of winter! It is time to put away the snow boots and dust off the bicycles to get ready for exploring our beautiful area this Spring. But, before preparing for the new season, take time to explore local family fun on Saturday and Sunday!

Wear green and enjoy St. Patrick’s Day festivities this weekend, including the family-friendly Bucks County parade in Fairless Hills on Saturday. Get crafty at a local Lowe’s retail store on Saturday morning at their hands-on children’s workshop.

Hop across the Delaware River to visit the Howell Living History Farm in Hopewell, NJ for an enjoyable outing with workhorse rides. And, celebrate TreeTrails Adventures’ seasonal opening with thrilling ropes courses and free giveaways.

These are my top four picks for a family fun-filled weekend:
