I'm always on the lookout for family-friendly fun in Metro Detroit (especially if it's free), so I have to give a shout out to the 2nd annual Green Street Fair in Downtown Plymouth this weekend, May 1-3.
Never mind that one of the organizers, Mandi Buckland, was my Maid of Honor. I would recommend the Green Street Fair even if Mandi and I never sang along to Yaz records in her family camper, or lived together in the Bird's Nest on Fairbrook Ave. Or danced until 4 a.m. during Mardi Gras on St. Maarten.
Anyway, we're moms now and there's plenty for kids to do at Green Street Fair.
Fort Box, in Kellogg Park, encourages tykes to play in a city of recycled cardboard boxes, like this one Mandi made (pictured), as well as make their own fort box.
Kids will also love Carousel Acres Petting Farm and the Green Magician, as well as all the healthy snacks!
Meanwhile, moms can shop the fab green vendors, and learn from lectures in the Green Speakers Series, like "Green Crafting for the Whole Family," presented by Lish Dorset of Handmade Detroit.
So much to do! Just don't schedule anything at the Green Street Fair from 2-4 p.m. Saturday ... that's when you'll be seeing the Mydols at MamapaZOOza!
