Michaels stores routinely offers
events for kids at their stores. They offer both Kids Club events that cost $2/child for each 30 minute session and FREE Family Events. In March, they have 4 events listed.
Their first event is NEA's Read Across America on Saturday, March 2 from 10-11:30a. There will be 30 minute sessions starting every half-hour. They don't list details of the event but I would assume it would include a story and Dr Seuss themed craft. The event costs $2.
On Saturday, March 9 they will kick off their Easter themed events with Paper Easter Baskets. They will start a session every 30 minutes from 10-11:30a. Sessions cost $2/child. These Paper Easter Baskets look very easy to assemble. I found a similar craft to make lanterns before my daughter's 2012 Rapunzel themed birthday party and used them for the kids to make lanterns. Last Halloween, we used orange paper to create jack-o-lanterns in my daughter's class.
On Saturday, March 16 they will have the FREE Family Craft Time with a Crayola Model Magic Duck from 1-3p. Families will be able to create their own duck to take home and keep or give as an Easter gift.
The final March event is Saturday, March 23 with the Kids Club Easter Egg Mosaic by Perler Beads. The event costs $2/child and there will be sessions every 30 minutes from 10-11:30a.
These events look like a lot of fun! So be sure to mark your calendars
