Hey moms and dads! Valentine’s Day sure has changed, hasn’t it? Gone are the days of long romantic candlelit dinners, especially those of us with younger kids.
While it’s important to celebrate with your significant other, it’s also important to celebrate with your children. If you aren’t a celebratory type, perhaps even a small love token of some sort to your children is always a sweet idea to show that they can be included in the day of love. This might look like making their favorite meal or finally buying that long-wanted toy.
The events below are great for families with kids of all ages to involve everyone.
Triskelee Farm has a special family-friendly market experience on Saturday, February 11th, from 1-5pm. It looks like not only will they have bottle service and massages(!), but it also looks like they will have photo ops. The event is free, but if you’d like to reserve a table, you can do so. https://triskeleefarm.com/events
