There are many resources for finding activities for children. Often, you will find that one event or outing can lead to the next. Join a Mom/Dad 'n Me music class, and you're bound to meet other parents of same-aged children, which often leads to future playtime together.

To begin your search for activities, you may look in a number of places. Activities with a dollar sign ($) tend to be a bit more expensive, but usually worth the fee; those without a dollar sign are relatively inexpensive or free:

  1. Local newspapers. Just about every newspaper contains a "Things to do" section, often in the Friday edition. Look for the children's/kids' activity section, as well as for more general activities sections, which may include local points of interest/activities such as museums, family-oriented concerts, etc.

  2. On-line sources, including the local yellow pages. Search general categories, such as children's music class, art class, gymnastics, etc. to find locations, phone numbers and links to websites. You may need to try a few keywords to find what you're looking for (ie: to find a ballet class, you may search under ballet, dance studio or dance instruction).

    Some child-oriented businesses are part of larger national or international groups or chains, with local chapters. You may find them in the yellow pages, or search their websites to find locations (including fees and schedules) in your area. Some popular organizations are listed below:

    • International Mom's Club-chapters can be joined for a small annual fee (approximately $20). Generally for mothers of infants-preschoolers. This club sends out monthly/bi-monthly newsletters with lists and contacts for other group members, as well as a list of activities for the upcoming months. It usually offers a wide range of activities, at different times of day to accommodate different schedules (ie: nap times). You'll find everything from meetings in the park to all-day outings and holiday parties. Playgroups often form through these groups. www.momsclub.org
