It's Friday again! Which means we've got a fun list of things you can do with your kid(s) this weekend!
The Philadelphia Zoo's Staying Power: Be Distinct, or Go Extinct experience is a wonderful way to spend this beautiful weekend. With the weather on the warmer side, I know your kiddo is dying to have a little fun in the sun. This awesome walk-through experience brings historic dinosaurs and creepy crawling insects to life with super-sized animatronics.
With Saturday being almost in the 80's, you may want to do things inside with air conditioning. The Franklin Institute's Disney100 and the Please Touch Museum's Emotions at Play exhibits are great ways to beat the sun!
If you want to get your kid outdoors National Parks across America are kicking off National Parks Week with free entrance days! Saturday, April 22nd, you can explore our local national parks for free. Check out the list of National Parks in our area here!
