Our Local County Park System.....

Every summer our local County Park System with the help of sponsors puts on a number of FREE summer events for families to enjoy. They offer everything from movie nights, concerts, fireworks, seniors programs, workshops, kids events, and many more fun activities! The summer program runs from late May until late September so there is always plenty of things to do!!

Just the other day, I took Little Man and Little Miss to one of the Kids programs they offer called Monday Fundays. It is a cute little program for the kiddies. The topic was all about Dinosaurs....which Little Man finds so interesting!! They talked about dinosaurs with the help of props, and kiddie audience volunteers...as to keep the kiddies involved and interested. They even had a hand-made Volcano that they erupted for the kiddies to see. Little Man loved it...thought it was so COOL!! Then they passed out dough to all the kiddies and they made a fossil to take home.

They also offered cookies and juice for snack. And had a sponsor Chick-Fil-A there with a little game for the kiddies to play (Sort-of like Plinko from The Price Is Right). You drop the flat circles into the slot and where ever it lands at the bottom...is a FREE food item you win to Chick-Fil-A. Little Man got to play for Little Miss as well...Oh and I got to play too..they insisted!! So we won a Free Waffle Fries, Free Milkshake, Free Salad, and A Free 3-piece chicken tenders!!!

The program lasted a bit over an hour and was a good time. We look forward to next Monday when we can go again!! Do you have a similar program where you live? Do your kiddies love it just as much as Little Man?

Do they check for being a resident in the county? I might suggest this to my playgroup, but not all of them are residents of camden county...
Thanks!
