Preparing for the holidays has officially started in our house and probably yours as well. We're starting with Thanksgiving - meal planning, buying all the goodies to make that Thanksgiving dinner as yummy as ever, and of course, the big bird. What is still uncertain for us - and I suspect many - is what Thanksgiving is going to look like this year. For us, it is probably not going to be all of us getting together at my parents for a few days and pretty much planning our Christmas and to be honest - I'm very sad about that being the case. But, I also know that this is an unusual year and hopefully things will return to normal next year. One thing that hasn't changed and is for sure is that Macaroni Kid Yorkville - Geneva - St Charles is here with articles, recipes, crafts, and more to help you get through it all. Be sure to subscribe and follow Macaroni Kid Yorkville - Geneva - St. Charles on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for even more ideas to help you find your family fun!
