Fun Things to Do with Kids in North Little Rock ~ August 12th

Events & Activities for Families in NLR, Sherwood, Maumelle, Scott, LRAFB, and Jacksonville, AR

By Sandra Ozaki, Publisher Macaroni KID North Little Rock, Arkansas August 11, 2024

 August has always been an exciting month for me. I'm that mom who loves to shop for school supplies and bargains! But the kids are older now, and though I long for the days of new crayon boxes and composition notebooks, I'll have to settle for mechanical pencils and fancy kicks.

I can't wait to share our upcoming community guide filled with festivals, shows, and concerts! Many already have early bird tickets on sale and trust me, you want to get on that as soon as possible! While we're putting the finishing touches on the guide, be sure to check out our article on upcoming festivals and celebrations so you can add your favorites to your family calendar.

Check back frequently because events are added every week!
