NO KIDDING EDITORIAL


We may have shivered and sniffled our way through winter, but the first shoots of spring are already on the way.

Heaps of family activities are happening this month, not least of which is the Avon Valley Descent. Local councils including the Cities of Bayswater and Belmont are hosting free family fun days on the banks of the Swan River. Entertainers, free food and drinks, giant screens and marquees as well as live race commentary should make it a memorable day for all.

If youíd like to celebrate National Tree Day on Sunday August 2 why not join a community planting? Itís a great way for the family to enjoy time together and help promote environmental awareness. Contact Planet Ark at treeday.planetark.org for details.

If you still need to snuggle indoors why not try all the entertainment offered right through August during the Perth Winter Arts Festival? Visit www.perthwinterartsfestival.com.au for details.

Finally, donít forget to visit our website www.kidsinperth.com, which will soon be expanded to incorporate everything you love about Kids In Perth ñ The Parentsí Paper ñ and more! Keep looking for those green shoots!
