In conjunction with this interactive celebration of LEGO awesomeness, They're Our Kids is giving away a pair of tickets to the opening session of LEGO KidsFest to one lucky Villager! I was recently alerted to the existence of Hobson's Fun Farm in Rockville, Ind., so my wife and I piled our 8-year-old and 7-year-old daughters into the car and headed west to Parke County to check it out. Here's what we discovered there.
Villagers, do you know about the Here We Grow Again kids consignment sale coming to the Hendricks County 4-H Fairgrounds next week? Would you like a chance to win a pre-sale pass for Oct. 7 and an opportunity to get first crack at all of the goodies that will be for sale?
