Check out the easy family waterfall hike to Mill Valley's Cascade falls. We are expecting a lot of rain this week, so it should be spectacular.
Here's our weekly list of 15 fun things to do with the kids this week, January 25–31. From craft ideas and recipes to family hikes and whale watching, there's something for everyone.
Keep in mind that many of these activities require advance registration, so check the organizer's website before you attend. If you have something fun you'd like to share, please let us know and we'll consider it for next week's list!
