Greetings, Macaroni Kid families!
Wow—last weekend was a whirlwind! Thank you to everyone who came out to support the first annual EASTON BOOK FESTIVAL. The event, with over 200 authors in 25 venues, was a huge success and brought books, entertainment, and educational and crafting workshops to over 5,000 kids and adults in Easton.
Here are a few
