Weekday Picks for Westchester Kids: Library Sleepover, Purim in the Wild West, Movies and More, Mar. 2-6

3/1/15 - By Susan Miele

The switch from February to March reminds us that spring is near and warmer temperatures are on their way! While many weekend events this month in Westchester focus on St. Patrick’s Day and maple sugaring, the weekdays are a great time to take in other activities.

March is also the time for Purim, and we think Purim in the Wild West sounds like a rousing way to celebrate. Two fun, throwback films are being shown this week, one of which, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Pizza Party, means you don’t have to make dinner. If you feel that winter has impeded your adventurousness, enjoy an indoor slumber party at Family Night at the Library.

But don’t stop there! Read on for all our top picks for Monday through Friday—then continue on to our Events Calendar for even more great options for every day of the week, including ways to celebrate the annual Read Across America day, like Read Across America: "Oh, The Places You'll Go" & Dr. Seuss Bingo. Also consult our hot-off-the-press March GoList for our top picks for the month. And if you haven't already, be sure to sign up for our FREE newsletters
