Early

Since I missed posting about things to do for the week of Thanksgiving. I figured I better shape up and if I wasn't finding time to post Sunday evenings, I'd have to post Saturday nights.

Ethel-M has it's Botanical cactus garden decorated with lights every night and is free to the public. Santa will be there I believe on Friday and Saturday nights, but it could be every night, the website did not say.

The Bellagio also has their Botanical Gardens decorated for the holiday season and their fountains in tune with holiday music daily all day long.

As in every week Bass Pro Shops is having their Santa's Wonderland where the children can see Santa and get a free picture with him. This week's craft available all week long (or until supplies run out) is an animal ornament.

After Halloween

So it's Thursday and I know I've missed posting about some kids events at the malls around town, the Funset Kids Club on Tuesday, the storytime in the square at Town Square, and the Carousel storytime at the Premium Outlet Mall South (previously known as the Bealls outlet mall on Wednesday. However the Town Square Mall and the Premium Outlet mall South has those weekly and the Sunset Mall has theirs the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month so if you want to go to them you would probably already be going to them and know when they are, this would've just been a reminder. Also since it's November the outdoor movies are no longer a weekly event, as far as I can tell. There are though the Welcoming Santa parades going on all this month.
