"Good Times" Guide For Stay-At-Home Parents For April 25-May 1

Family Fun At Little Or No Cost!

This calendar of events is designed with a budget in mind. These free and low cost happenings can help you get out of the house with the kids, without spending a lot of money.  Some events require that you call ahead, so I have included the phone number and/or web address.  Don’t forget that the library has passes for discounted or free admission to Connecticut attractions.  ENJOY!
