Congratulations parents, you’ve made it halfway through vacation week!
Just in case you still need a little something to get your littles up and going, we get to take a totally age appropriate journey to the Holyoke Children’s Museum, where program director Emmy Garick and operations manager Julie Cologne let us run around like the kids we are at heart, and show us how the city itself continues to contribute towards learning and play
Once the kids are done, you might want to relax with a seasonal beverage and snacks to boot. Protocol in Amherst unexpectedly stumbled into seasonal fair, but local produce is influencing not just its food, but its bar menu and appeal to the burgeoning downtown scene as well, and operations manager Alden Peotter walks us through bringing a cosmopolitan approach to a rural setting and more.
And the horrors abound at our dictionary in Springfield as Word Nerd Emily Brewster, senior editor at Merriam Webster makes us face the vocab with the words we use to describe our fears (with apologies to the logophobes out there).
