Parents listen up!

Some of our friends are already able to read. And they told us all about the goodies the
kids event calendar Hits4Kids has to offer. They mentioned something about a
spooky-scary hiking trip, and yes also about walking on a Saga Trail. Or what about a
petting zoo at a farm? Believe it or not one can also explore old caves with a headlamp
like a real speleologist. One thing is for sure: we children all agree on the kids program.
