Hi Naperville parents 👋
Welcome back to Issue #2 of The Naperville FunTimes. Your go-to guide for easy, fun family activities in Naperville and beyond. Here are three exciting things to do with your kids between March 23rd and 29th!
Activities are always:
• Local (Naperville or nearby)
• Kid-friendly (ages 3–12)
• Easy for busy families
Plus: I always try to include a FREE kids meal option with the activities so you don’t have to worry about cooking dinner that day…
Let’s jump into this week’s picks.
