Yes, it's Rosh Hashanah weekend. So many of us may not be looking too hard for something cool to do with the kids, at least on Saturday.
But, if you are, here are some great offerings around the area:
1. Walking With Dinosaurs opened yesterday at the Verizon Center and runs through Sept. 20. Parent reviewers from other cities where the show has toured say it's too short and the narration actor is monotone and uninviting. But, despite its cost -- nosebleed seats are $30 a ticket -- it still has the wow factor of huge dinosaurs. I, for one, have two boys who would love it.
2. The Maryland Renaissance Festival runs through Oct. 25. If ever there was the perfect place for a kid to pretend, this is it. If you haven't been yet, it's quite a sight: Festival day in a 16th century village -- full of costumes, jousting, dancing, demonstrations and acting galore. There's a great kids' play area as well for little ones who can get overwhelmed with all the activity.
3. Did you miss the Montgomery County Fair? Was the Maryland State Fair too far to drive? Well, no worries. If you and your kids love fairs, with all the rides and pig races, look no farther than Anne Arundel. The Anne Arundel County Fair runs through Sept. 20.
4. Would you rather stay indoors? If so, it's opening weekend for Adventure Theater's Go, Dog, Go.

Hi Stacey! Looks great! For what it's worth, Caleb saw Walking With Dinosaurs last time it was in DC and did indeed love it...he'll be back this weekend as a repeat customer. We want to try the Renaissance festival....
