Adventures abound at Trike Town, the outdoor, child-size city at The Magic House. Kids can pick out their favorite little red tricycle and explore the entire town while learning about bicycle safety and the importance of wearing a helmet. They also learn about common street signs. The adventure continues with a stop at the tiny house with hands-on activities and pretend play opportunities, a candy shop, a pretend Farmer's Market and more. After they're done exploring Trike Town, kids can park their tricycles and relax with some fun yard games.
Open Tuesday through Sunday (closed on Mondays), weather permitting, through October 27, at The Magic House. Trike Town is included with regular admission.
