Whether your kid is more bouncy or craft-oriented, there's a Brew City birthday party that can accommodate his / her wishes -- and hopefully your budget. Remember: the best part of the away-from-home birthday party is that you don't have to clean up after the festivities.

Is my kid restaurant-friendly?
As a food writer and parent, my perspective is not so much is a restaurant kid-friendly, but more, "Is my kid restaurant-friendly?" Let's face it. We're all, with kids or without kids, paying the same price for the food and service at any given establishment, so why should it be any different for us if we have our 6-year-old with us?

Working toward a Youth Arts Center
One could understand how the Milwaukee Youth Symphony and First Stage Children's Theater are literally, in concert, when it comes to the arts. Now, the organizations are in harmony with the future, and a new Youth Arts Center.

The second movie, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," continues the story of the young wizard. This high-budget film will ferry fans and their families through the holiday season, and to the movie's credit, they will not be disappointed.
