Calling all kids, parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles! Audubon Kids’ Day is a great way to spend an autumn afternoon together having fun in the outdoors. Haywagon rides, a haybale maze, cool kids’ crafts and new fun games are just part of the fun! Children who try out the games receive a special key that allows them access to the treasure chest, filled with lots of fun toys! Great food, such as hamburgers and hot dogs, pumpkin pie and candy apples are available as well. There’s so much to do in so little time! This year, get ready to laugh and have fun with a petting zoo from Housatonic Regional High School, musician Tom Hanford and much more. Children are encouraged to come in costume and join in the costume parade at 2:15pm, led by a real marching band! Tell all your friends, and carpool...admission is only $7.00 per carload!
