Enjoy the spectacular spring landscape as mom and the family pose for pictures surrounded by the colorful array of flora; play games and fly a kite; enjoy live music; and picnic. Or make a reservation for a delicious meal with mom at the Hudson Garden Grill.

10 Things to Do While You’re There:
• A Mom’s Tea Party
• Chalk Drawing
• Croquet
• Bean bag toss
• Ladder toss and giant chess.
• Face Painting
• Make a Card for Mom
• Peekaboo-kun Interactive Sculpture Display
• The Tiny Book Show– Make miniature books

She now works from home as a freelance graphic designer and a chauffeur to her 3 busy kids. "Working on TipsFromTown has been a wonderful outlet for me. It renewed my love of publishing where I can design colorful, enticing pages online and allows me to share the things I love about being a mom." Heather grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a place that still is near and dear to her. " After living in Brooklyn for 18 years and studying Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, she now lives in the Jersey burbs. "I love living so close to NYC, but in my heart, I'm an Ohio girl."
