What's all this buzz about?
Greetings!
As a Racine mom of 4 kids, I am so excited to share with you this new kid on the block, Just Add Kids, born out of my passion and the need for every mom, dad, grandparent, educator, and childcare provider to quickly access timely, kid-friendly, family-oriented fun opportunities available in the Racine, Kenosha, and surrounding communities. I refer to him/her as JAK, for short.
Currently, the website provides calendar items driven by what the community wants to let you know about, and what you'd like to inform area families about. I look forward to your contributions, whether it's a school open house, theater performance, sports registration start dates, or a benefit event to help a family in crisis.
Please submit your items from the Happenings page.
This valuable, one-stop calendar of events is only the beginning. JAK continues to grow up with the addition of the Business Directory, plus seasonal directories such as the Summer Camp, Resale Resource, and Harvest Happenings pages. Check back for more school options, childcare facilities, recreation and enrichment programs, retail shops, health care providers, parks, etc. listings in the Business Directory. New content is continually being added.
JAK is two! In celebration of this milestone, Just Add Kids is throwing an on-line party with the JAK Birthday Bash. Check out the growing list of children's birthday party destinations, suppliers, and entertainers.
