*'families stand together' KPBS & The Escondido Children's Museum are hosting a free family event - there will be a screening of a special movie about feeling secure during tough times, Clifford the dog will be there for a 'meet & greet', and there will be lots of fun giveaways. 9am - 1230pm - event is free but you must RSVP for a screening time. WEBSITE SAYS RAIN OR SHINE! Even if you did not RSVP for a screening time this should still be a great event (there will probably be lots of no shows b/c of the rain so you may still get a seat even without the RSVP) - they marketed this all the way up to LA so it sounds like it is worth the drive out - we are going at 9am no matter how much it rains!
*Michaels arts & crafts - 'free' make & take (there is often a nominal fee for these crafts - sometimes free, sometimes you have to buy one item & you get to decorate free - still always very inexpensive) 10am - 2pm
*Lakeshore Learning Center
click here to find out what craft they are making FREE this week! 11am - 3pm
*Museums on Us is a cool program for Bank of America Customers - The New Children's Museum & Birch Aquarium are FREE this weekend when you show your Bank of America card - nice!
*Jack's Pond Nature Center in San Marcos - FREE every Saturday! 760-744-9000-3508 (maybe not such a great idea in the rain)
* San Elijo Lagoon has free guided walks with a naturalist FREE every Saturday! http://www.sanelijo.com/ - also probably not a great rainy day activity - but keep in mind for the future
*FREE Movie Screening at San Marcos Civic Center (these are AWESOME!) it is outdoors so bring jackets & blankets - 630pm - *this may be canceled if there is still rain =(
*always check with your local library for Saturday craft days - this Saturday there are confirmed craft at Del Mar (MUST REGISTER) & Campo Morena Branches
Enjoy ~
