Grab & Go Kids Planner: U Bug Me, Mini-golf and more

Greenfield Patch has five things for you and your kids to do this weekend.

The weather seems to have taken a turn for the better, but probably not enough that you can just send the kids out in the yard to play all weekend.

So, Greenfield Patch has come up with five activities for your children (and some for you too) to enjoy.
