Today is a very busy day, as Day 6 of CYP's KidsFest Adventure brings lots of fun activities all over Dare County!
It may be a little chilly outside for May, but there are still plenty of things to do with your young child. If you're looking for something outside, don't forget to stop by Roanoke Island Volunteer Fire Department, Kill Devil Hills Police Department, Manteo Police Department, or the Dare County Sheriff's Office!
If you're looking for some indoor excitement, Outer Banks Hotline, Inc. will have 'Growing Kindness' kits available for pick-up at their office today, the Dare County Arts Council has an amazing gallery to explore, or you could take some time at home to complete the Think Babies survey at bit.ly/cypthinkbabies.
Remember, if you complete a minimum of five KidsFest Adventure activities and submit your Activity Guide to CYP at the end of KidsFest Adventure (by May 20), you will be entered into the drawing for our awesome grand prize!
You can find out more details about all the activities available and the grand prize at darekids.org/kidsfest.
