Grab and Go Kids Planner for March 16-20

It's that time again, time to look for special things to do with, or for, your children. Take a look at our Patch picks for this week.

So much to do, so little time to figure out just what it is you can do with and for your children. This week is easy—it's baseball season again, and Little League is up and running. You can also go see a play or head out for a hike on horseback. Those are some of our Patch picks for this week. See what else we've lined up for you as possibilities in our Kids Planner for Cupertino.
