A Little List
Everything for Hoboken parents, in one little list · Aug 13–19
|
| Good morning, Hoboken. The humidity is currently thick enough to wear as a raincoat, and my children have officially reached the stage of summer where they start crying if I suggest a walk to the pier. We are entering that desperate mid-August stretch where the only thing keeping us sane is the promise of a semi-structured activity and the fact that school supply shopping is technically right around the corner. |
In today’s list: | • Grand Street hosts summer carnival | | • Hoboken Green Fair arrives | | • Workshop addresses people pleasing habits |
|
| Let’s get to it. |
