Bring your "A" game this week, thanks to our lineup of free fun for the family. Art workshops, Lunar New Year celebrations, or even a little football means there's something for everyone in this edition of MacKID picks. Check out this winning lineup of can't-miss events happening February 7 - 13:
1. Celebrate Neurodiversity on World Read Aloud Day
Everyone has unique abilities to share with the world. Author, actor, and model Mia Armstrong knows plenty about sharing. Especially when it comes to her story of living a full life with Down syndrome. Join her for a read-aloud of her book and get inspired to live more fully and help those around you do the same. Feb. 7
2. Use Shapes to Create
Drawing comes easily to some people and for the rest of us? Well, not so much. That's why we're grabbing our kids and tuning in to this fun virtual workshop all about starting with basic shapes and ending up with amazing artwork. Picasso's got nothing on your kids. Feb. 8
3. Celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year
The Lunar New Year starts tomorrow and we're getting excited about this Year of the Dragon. First step? Learning all about dragons and their important role in Chinese culture. There's no easier way than joining this interactive event with the Penn Museum. Get the party started. Feb. 9
