We’re just a week into January, and I have a running list of things I want to do with my family this year. We checked one off with a visit to the new “Brainy Bodies” exhibit at PacSci. Next on my list: the incredible ice bumper cars. Tickets sell out quickly, so it’s worth planning ahead. (Plus, there’s an adventurous playground right outside that we love, earning a spot as the playground of the week.) If you’re feeling spontaneous, I have you covered with my weekend’s top 10 events.
