Things To Do In San Francisco This Weekend (Milkshakes and Margaritas

what our kids are reading now

The adventures of Samuarai Jack has been great fun to read. The series is about, an evil shape-shifter named Aku from the distant past that has brought destruction upon the land. Jack is a heroic warrior in a quest to return to the past and undo the evil wrought by Aku. ~ d
Dillon has been loving “The Monster Show” for weeks. It is a cute “tell all” about monsters... did you know that monsters feel silly only wearing underpants? Little D (3) now reads it back to me and it is the cutest thing ever. ~d
This is a great little series of books about trucks, fire engines, digger and other machines. Dillon reads these over and over again. The have cute illustrations, bright colors and they are about machines — what little boy wouldn't like! ~d

San Francisco’s Botanical Garden Society presents Nests, a photographic exhibition by SF photographer Sharon Beal. Helen Crocker Russel Library at the SF Botanical Garden. The gardens are also a great place to have a picnic and discover “secret paths”. It's one of my 5-year-old son's favorite places.

The Exploratorium is offering a free interactive exhibit where you can learn things like how to use the Golden Gate Bridge as a thermometer. The exhibit is located at Fort Mason between the SF Aquatic Park and the Marina District.

Kids can learn to make fabulous flowers from recycled paper and share a story. June 13th, 11am, Park Brand Library. Call 415-666-7155 to find out more.
