Fairfax is Back!


Coming soon...

Welcome to Fairfax Macaroni Kid! Whether you are new or returning....I am SOOOO glad that you are here!  

As the sun finally starts to shine here in Northern Virginia, Fairfax's own Macaroni Kid is back and ready to provide our families with ideas, events, activities, plus some special bonus items for adults. 

As we get to know each other better, this newsletter will be yours...to be successful we will need your participation.  Share your needs, your wish list, your interests...and as much as possible, your input will guide us through the maze of local everything. 

It seems unbelievable that spring break is almost upon us....after all the weeks of snow and cold winds. Our children have played in the snow, played inside, watched movies, played games, over and over and over again. It is time to find something inspiring...something exciting...something to re-invigorate the life in all of us! 

As Fairfax's Macaroni Kid gets back on it's feet...I ask for your patience.  By the first week of April, our e-newsletter will be bi weekly event.  For now, know that I am scouring resources to find the best of the best...and hopefully will have give aways galore! 

In the meantime...share Macaroni Kid with your friends, neighbors, siblings, grandparents, babysitters...anyone that will lend an ear (or an eye as the case may be).

Enjoy the "warm" (it's all relative at this point) weather this weekend!

Your Fairfax Macaroni Mom
