Grab & Go Kids Planner: Feb. 23 through March 2

It's Wednesday, and that means it's time to check out our Grab & Go Kids Planner to see what Wheaton has to offer kids and families this week. As always, we'd love to hear from you if there are any local, family-friendly events that we missed. Let us know, and we'll be sure to keep an eye out for them in the future.

We were a little upset when we woke up on Tuesday to the green grass covered in snow. But that's not going to stop us from finding some fun for our Wheaton families. There's plenty to do as we wait for the sun to melt away the ice and snow.

Take a look at what's going on for kids and parents this week:
