There is so much happening, it's hard to keep up! Here are some highlights:

- Free summer bowling at Chipper's Lanes. Be sure to arrive EARLY. More info on their website.

- Berry Patch Farms in Brighton has strawberry picking! They're organic and so sweet to the kids. They tell them they have to eat strawberries while they are picking. Costs about $3/pint

- Little Builders exhibit at Longmont Museum open May 26- Aug 2. Children 2 to 7 will create and play as they explore the concepts of construction, motion, and simple machines. Totally free! Reminds me of a Children's Museum exhibit, but closer and cheaper. Worth the trip!
