February may be the shortest month of the year, but that doesn't mean it can't be the best! Here at Macaroni Kid Allentown - Kutztown, we strive to make every month the best ever. Here are five things that we have on our bucket list this month.
1- Cheer on the Harlem Globetrotters at the PPL Center (https://shrsl.com/3cisk)
My sports-obsessed son is counting down the days until we get to watch The Harlem Globetrotters at the PPL Center. Children of any age will "oooh" and "ahhh" as they watch these amazing athletes perform amazing tricks. Follow the link above for a special discount code. (February 18th)
2- Take a Road Trip to Stroudsburg for Snowmen of Stroudsburg (https://www.facebook.com/events/1067349634101557/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22mechanism%22%3A%22search_results%22%2C%22surface%22%3A%22bookmark%22%7D]%2C%22ref_notif_type%22%3Anull%7D)
I haven't actually done this yet, but it's been on my radar since January. Every year, local artists design and build "snowmen" and place them all over downtown Stroudsburg. So bundle up, take a walk, and find a new local business or two to support! (Now - February 25th)
3- Lock Down a Babysitter and Celebrate Valentine's Day (https://bethlehem.macaronikid.com/articles/61f2d8fbe7c0152324d87c1a/creative-date-night-ideas-in-the-bethlehem-area)
Whether you're able to celebrate Valentine's Day on actual Valentine's Day or not, take some time to reconnect with your special someone this month. Whether your idea of fun is a romantic candlelit dinner or axe throwing, there's something for everyone in the Allentown Area!
4- Treat Your Little Girl to Sweet & Sassy's Daddy Daughter Dance (https://www.facebook.com/events/589395908873355?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22surface%22%3A%22page%22%7D]%7D)
Get your little girl all dressed up and take her out for a night she'll never forget! This month is the long-awaited Daddy Daughter Dance at The Palace in Allentown. This event features dinner, dancing, princesses, and much more! Your daughter can be accompanied by a father, step-father, grandfather, uncle, or any special man in their life. (February 25th)
5- Check out Your Local Library for FREE Fun (https://www.bapl.org, https://www.solehipl.org, https://www.hellertownlibrary.org, https://www.nazarethlibrary.org)
Libraries are the best place to look for fun, FREE events all year long. Now that the weather is a bit iffy, my family has been turning to our local library more and more for easy ways to get our kids out of the house and entertained. Many local libraries offer family game nights, book clubs, crafts, and virtual events. Check out your local library for more!
