IT'S OFFICIAL - SUMMER IS HERE!
Whew! Between summer camp, family trips, trying out new places on kidwinks (yes, we do that too - it's why we created kidwinks in the first place!), play dates and multiple visits to the pool (gotta make sure that pool pass was money well-spent!) I already feel like this is going to be one of our busiest summers ever. And there's plenty left on our to-do list!
If you're the type of mom who makes a list of things to do over the summer, you might want to tune in to ABC Channel 7 News at 11:00am today (Monday, June 21st). Jean will be sharing kidwinks' "Summer Must-Do List" with Channel 7's viewers.
A few of the events from our calendar are highlighted below, but there's lots more going on. Don't miss out -- click through our Chicago Area Kids Events Calendar yourself if you're looking for something to do this week and nothing below catches your eye.
Don't forget to check our guides and our site frequently - we add to them every day!
