Hey Parents, Let’s Talk About a Free, Fun-Filled Day with Daniel Tiger!
Parenting is a full-time gig that comes with a never-ending to-do list. Feed the kids, keep them alive, teach them kindness, and somehow squeeze in a moment to sip your coffee before it turns into iced coffee (unintentionally).
Luckily, WITF has just the thing to check off a few of those boxes: Be My Neighbor Day! 🎉 A free event on Saturday, April 5, from 10 AM – 1 PM at Keystone Kidspace in York, PA. And before you even ask—yes, Daniel Tiger himself will be there! 🐯
Remember That Time Daniel Tiger Made an Inside Beach?
And Mom Tiger didn't actually flip her lid? Like, she just rolled with it and somehow turned it into a wholesome, educational moment instead of a Category 5 meltdown about sand in the carpet?
Yeah. We all had a moment there. Some mom goals for sure.
And while most of us won’t achieve that level of inner peace when our kids dump an entire bag of flour on the floor for a “snow day,” we can bring them to Be My Neighbor Day—where they can get messy, creative, and entertained while we just enjoy the moment.
Why Your Family Will Love This Event (and Why You’ll Thank Yourself for Going)
Here’s the deal—this is not your average kids’ event where you spend 90% of the time bribing your toddler to stop licking things. Be My Neighbor Day is packed with hands-on activities, interactive fun, and even a free book for every kid! (Because we all know bedtime books mysteriously disappear.)
✅ Meet Real-Life Community Helpers 🚓👩🚒
Your kid’s current dream job is probably astronaut-firefighter-princess-ninja, right? They’ll get to meet actual community helpers and explore all the cool ways people work together to make neighborhoods better.
✅ STEM Stations & Crafting Galore 🎨🔬
Kids can design Kindness Cards (perfect for Grandma, or that neighbor who gave them extra Halloween candy), create gifts, and dive into STEM activities that make learning feel like playtime.
✅ Bilingual Storytime (English & Spanish!) 📖✨
Because learning a second language should start before we’re all too old to remember where we put our car keys.
✅ Daniel Tiger Meet & Greet 🐯📸
Your preschooler will either lose their tiny mind with excitement or become adorably starstruck. Either way, it’s a guaranteed cute photo op!
✅ FREE Admission to Keystone Kidspace! 🏗️🎭
Keystone Kidspace is already one of the coolest places around for hands-on creativity, so the fact that admission is free during this event is basically like getting a golden ticket to the ultimate indoor play experience.
Oh, and did I mention PNC Grow Up Great® is giving each child a free reusable tote bag AND a book? That means you leave with a kid who’s had a blast and some cool new stuff. That’s what we call a win-win-win.
