Weekday Picks for Connecticut Kids: Peter & the Starcatcher, Broadway Dance, & American Girl, January 26-30
We've rounded up something fun to do across the state each day. Although we only highlight one activity per day in this post, you can find plenty of other options in our Event Calendar. This week you can go to the planetarium, hang out with your American Girl Doll, take a free Broadway dance class and more. With the snow that fell this weekend, make sure to check out our Winter Fun Guide for more ideas. Have fun! Editor's Note: With the blizzard coming across the state, some of these events may be canceled or postponed. Always call the venue first to confirm. Stay warm and safe!
We've also added an additional newsletter so our subscribers will get the new weekday events right in their inbox Monday mornings. Not a subscriber? Sign up now!
