A Day for Moms and Dads

Good morning, Douglaston.

Today is our day full of content for parents in the community. Last night, we posted our Frugal Family column, so make sure to check it out.

This morning, we will post Grab and Go Kids Planner, which will help you find activities in the neighborhood this weekend to which you can take your youngsters, and Whiz Kid.

Later today, we'll post Great Escape, which gives helpful hints on places in the neighborhood at which you can take some off and treat yourself. Check back this weekend for Parent Talk.

Here are 5 Things You Need to Know Today:

1. Take a look at Frugal Family and then drop back by this morning for Grab and Go Kids Planner and Whiz Kid.

2. This afternoon, check out Great Escape. Then, drop by Saturday for Parent Talk.

3. Make sure you read our story on a Douglaston man who is manufacturing a plush toy known as Penpalz.

4. The Clinton Democratic Club will host its monthly meeting tonight.

5. The Bayside Public Library is offering its Mother Goose Time class this morning.
