Plan fun, interactive activities for the kids all summer long while supporting local Ravenswood businesses! Throughout the summer, we’ll highlight kid-friendly virtual activities, workshops, and classes to occupy their time while giving you a break. Some of these will simply be virtual events and others will include kits and materials necessary to purchase in advance. Keep an eye out for a few fun adult activities as well! We’ve got a few Field Days just for Mom and Dad up our sleeve.
