Weekend Fun

This weekend it will be nice and sunny so you may ask yourself, “Where should I go this weekend?”  Well here in so cal there are a few activities that you and your kids can totally enjoy. 

The first activity is the Leimert Park Village Book Fair.  There will be authors, poetry, theater, workshops, performances, storytelling, book signings, author meet-and-greet, kids’ activities, live music, literary walking tours, and cooking demos.  This event should be fun for you and the family and best part it’s FREE.  The location of the book fair is 3347 W. 43rd St. , Los Angeles , CA , 90008. 10AM-6PM

The next free fun will be a nice road trip but the kiddies will definitely have fun and that is a trip to the Ojai Lavender Festival.  If you have a little one like I do this will get their senses working.  The smell of lavender flowers, the touch, and the site of the beautiful flowers.  Hopefully after this road trip and the calming smell of lavender your little will sure to have a goodnight sleep. You can find the Ojai Lavender Festival at Libbey Park, 205 E. Ojai Ave., Ojai. Free parking with shuttle to venue available at 821 W. Ojai Ave. 10AM-5PM

Another great place to take the little ones is to the Griffith park and Observatory.  You may want to hike around for a bit let your child touch the tree’s and smell the flowers.  Or you can pay a few dollars for your son or daughter to ride the ponies or take a ride on the merry-go-round.  There are tons of activities to do at Griffith park and the observatory is free but the exhibits you have to pay for.

This weekend my Glo-worm and I will take some time exploring Griffith Park then do lunch and we will end our day at the library.  Make sure you keep hats, sun block and glasses on yourself and the kids, like I always tell my Glo-worm “safety first!”
