Click HERE to view the entire newsletter in your browser! Please forward this email to family and friends who are looking for local family fun and information. This week:
  • The winners of the Charmingfare Farm ticket giveaways are Theresa C. of Chelmsford for the Lighted Winter Wonderland tickets and Caroline C. of Lowell for the Santa's Big Party tickets! We have Holiday Giveaways this week! Sugar Coated Bakery, Itsy Bitsy Thrifty, and The Discovery Museums are all giving away great items. Click through to their articles to enter the giveaway. Please submit just one entry form!
  • Are you looking for volunteer or giving activities for your family?  See our list of Local Giving Tree Programs and list of Local Food Pantries. Even very young children can help choose and wrap gifts for children in need or food to donate to a food pantry.  Your donations make such a difference for families in need.
  • If your business or organization is trying to reaching local parents, contact us to plan your 2017 marketing. We can design a marketing plan for you via Macaroni Kid, provide marketing consulting, and even administer your Facebook page!
Please always remember to tell the event hosts that you heard about their event on Macaroni Kid! Your readership and support help us to bring you this free newsletter and website. 

Here are quick links to the events and activities happening each day in Lowell, Billerica, Chelmsford, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough, Dunstable, Dracut, Westford, Littleton, Groton and beyond.  Be sure to check back since we are always adding new events, and some occasionally are cancelled.

Please note that changes are sometimes made to events after I've added them to the calendar.  It's always a good idea to confirm with the event venue or coordinator, just in case there's been a change, cancellation or the event registration list is full.

I try to add "register in advance" to all activities that require pre-registration. Be sure to sign up quickly if you see one you definitely want to attend -- and if you change your mind, please "unregister" to free up your spot for another child!

If you know of any events or things to do that should be added to our calendar, please email the information to barbarae@macaronikid.com.  (Please note we only list events in the towns listed above.) 

Please "like" Lowell Macaroni Kid on Facebook to learn about local activities, special deals, and contests, follow us on Twitter for quick updates, and check out all of our past articles on Pinterest.  We also publish the neighboring Macaroni Kid newsletter covering Acton, Concord, Carlisle, Bedford, Boxborough, Maynard, Lexington and Lincoln!

Have a great week!
