Activities Galore at the 16th Annual Children's Festival!

The Wells Fargo Fun Zone features free balloons, hat-making, face painting, a performer meet and great area, and performances on the Community Stage. Head up the hillside lawn for parachute races, to pan for gold, play in the sand, and even make and fly a kite. Each day of the festival ends with the Festival Finale Kazoo-Dah Parade that begins and ends in the Fun Zone.

CFThe Adventure Zone also features hat-making and face painting along with interactive games. Make your own slime at Mad Science of Houston's Slippery Slime booth, create your own work of art in the sidewalk chalk area, make arts and crafts with The Woodlands Children's Museum, play games in the Pepsi truck, rock out with the Radio Disney Road Crew and much, much more.

Children can explore the elements of art at The Villager's Arts Alley by making crafts they can take home. They learn about lines, colors, shapes, patterns, unity, balance and more by using elements to make imaginative creations. Arts Alley also features Do-A-Dot art and the Art of Newspaper Design.

The Activity Tent is a constant exploration of games and amusements organized by local businesses including "Be a DJ" with K-STAR Country 99.7 FM, exploring and learning about musical instruments, fishing for prizes, a "pupcake" walk and lots of other great activities. Also, head to the end of the Activity Tent to catch a ride on a barrel train!

CFFor fitness and nutrition-related fun, children can visit the Memorial Hermann The Woodlands / Ironman Healthy KidZone to participate in physical activities and meet professional sports teams. Kids can learn the techniques of martial arts, go through an obstacle course, explore an ambulance, visit the teddy bear clinic and play a giant game of "Operation." For added adventure, kids looking for a challenge can climb a towering rock wall and roll, flip, run and spin on water without getting wet in a giant Bubble Runner.
