As a huge fan of spring, I’m beyond thrilled Nashville got to actually experience a couple weeks of warm days with a cool breeze before the sweltering heat returns (90s by Sunday, le sigh).

Thank goodness there are tons of ways to enjoy the hotter months with your kiddos. Let us help keep them entertained with our School’s Out Summer Sweepstakes! You could win season passes, sweet treats, tickets, and experiences - all perfectly balanced amounts of fun for both kids and their parents.
