Apex in marlborough has a ton of stuff. Theres an arcade, go carts, a rope obstacle course, bumper cars and more. That could be a fun time. Also tower hill botanical gardens in boylston usually has a bunch of events for kids of all age ranges. Its pretty cool to walk through and they have indoor spaces for events.

Why wouldn’t you want it picked up and dropped off after? The fee is usually small and worth it.

You’re going to have to bring it to a shop. When have you ever seen a mechanic do house calls?

I’ve also used their Mystic Aquarium pass in the past. Lots of options from WPL.

This is WHY you pay your taxes; so cops can break the law with immunity and YOU pay for the fallout.

It now costs $81 (discounted price, regular is $93) for a family of three to just get into Davis Farmland. That’s a lot for a maze.

Stowe Farm in Millbury is $3 a person and is basically a mini version of Davis Farmland. I even prefer it because it’s smaller and like 5% the price for really just as much fun, and closer. You’re looking at $9 vs $81, or $12 vs $108 if you have a spouse, for honestly the same amount of fun for the kid.

Definitely one of those things that are cooler to adults than kids, kids will probably like the open field more than tower once they realize they can’t go in it. And also the whole time you’re there you’re annoyed at the second hand weed smell and parking lot shenanigans.

Bancroft Tower could be cool if you hype it up as a mini castle

Worcester Public Library has museum passes for the Museum of Science, Children’s Museum, and New England Aquarium in Boston. The library isn’t open on Sundays yet but you can always reserve passes in advance.

The Butterfly Conservatory in Deerfield is always a good visit. There's also the Eric Carle museum in Amherst, with Atkins farm right around the corner. Plus the Quabbin is on the way.

Take music classes at the Joy of Music Program (JOMP) in Worcester!
And art classes at the Worcester Center for Crafts or the Worcester Art Museum!
The Worcester public library often has programs and events for kids.
Join the YMCA, they have classes for kids and special events and 2 different locations in Worcester itself plus several other nearby locations.
Go hiking in the woods looking for cool leaves!

Pretty sure the Worcester art museum is free today. They have some cool stuff on knights from the Higgins armory and I’m pretty sure there are some pieces of armor that the kids can try on and hold. There’s an old reconstructed chapel in there that’s kind of cool to be in. The modernist stuff upstairs is kind of trippy and the kids may enjoy looking at
