Ten things to do with your kids this season…
December 7, 2006

Over the next few days, we’ll be publishing ten things to do with your kids in the Portland area. Each day, we’ll publish two; one event and one activity.

Today’s list is a pair of easy ones:

Activity

Get out and get pictures. We never get enough pictures of our kids. Get them developed and hang them up, in one of those cute little Christmas Tree frames. Send them to their grandparents, to their foster parents, to your friends. The more happy pictures of happy kids in festive festivities, the better. :)

Event

frostedlights.jpgPeacock Lane. It’s free, very busy, short, and cheerful. Starting December 15, the houses on Peacock lane will be lit up with literally billions and billions of lights. It’s only about two blocks long, you can up and down it and not get cold- and usually there’s someone out there selling hot chocolate. It’s located in the Laurelhurst neighborhood, about 39th and SouthEast Stark. Follow the traffic. (Or the map).

For tomorrow, get together some cheap kichen sponges; red, white and green poster paint; and a roll of craft paper.
