Fall Events and Things to Do

Fall has arrived… Well sort of.

If you live in Palm Beach County you know that isn’t always the case and it still feels like beach weather here. Maybe you are a transplant from up north and miss apple picking and pumpkin patches. (There is no apple picking here… or fall leaves). Maybe you just really like pumpkin spice coffee and want to feel those fall vibes!

Don’t break out the sweaters and boots just yet!

However, here are some fun events and things to do with the kids during “Fall” in Florida.

Behold Fall and Halloween Fun at the South Florida Science Center and Aquarium

Don’t go through any toil and trouble searching for fall and Halloween fun this October.
