2 - Celebrate Kid’s Day
Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy hosts families to Kid’s Day at Schenley Plaza for an afternoon of fun in the sun – or under the tent. Kids will love the balloon artist, hands-on craft activities and performers. Moms and dads will love the price: It’s all free, including rides on the PNC Carousel. No registration is needed. Just stop by between noon and 5 p.m. on June 13.
3 - Cheer for Cinderella
South Park Theater’s lineup of plays for kids returns with all the gleeful silliness we missed last summer.

Lawn seating is limited to 150 patrons, allowing for social distancing. Tickets are $5, free for 3 years and younger, and sold at the door.
