What would you do when you are asked at the last minute to babysit a 6 year old? Can’t possibly just stay home and be a couch potato; kids are too active for that. Can’t spent the day in the park, because the weather is still winter like.

GoCityKids to the rescue. A quick search on their website and within seconds tons of activities for the day came up.

We decided to go to McNally Robinson Booksellers for Saturday Storytime. This past Saturday happen to be a Curious George special. Three Curious George stories were read to enthusiastic little boys and girls by resident storyteller Yvonne Brooks, author of “Meet the Goat Kids”. After the last story, “Curious George Flies a Kite”, the children made their own kites.

We had tons of fun testing the wind and trying to get our kite high in the sky in the local park afterwards.
