Thursday, February 25, 6:30pm
Cost: FREE.
Do your kids have questions about money? Do you have questions about how to talk to your kids about money?
Join us for a practical discussion on all the questions that parents ponder when it comes to raising kids with good values, who can make wise decisions about money. Ron will touch on the basics: the best ways to handle the tooth fairy, allowance, chores, charity, saving, birthdays, holidays, cell phones, checking accounts, clothing, cars, part-time jobs and college. He'll discuss the virtues and character traits like modesty, patience, generosity and perspective, that all parents hope that their kids will carry with them out into the world.
Drinks, Snacks and Book Sales will precede the event beginning at 6pm. This event has been jointly sponsored by the Parent Associations of Berkeley Carroll, Brooklyn Heights Montessori School, Mary McDowell Friends School, The Packer Collegiate Institute, and Poly Prep Lower School. This event is FREE.

Museum of Natural History
Cost: $125 per person (child or adult)
As the doors close and the lights dim, you and your group will head out with flashlights in search of a variety of adventures.
Meet your relatives in the Anne and Bernard Spitzer Hall of Human Origins. Climb the stairs and enter the Age of Dinosaurs, standing beneath a fearsome T. Rex. Explore our live-animal exhibitions with knowledgeable Museum explainers or encounter live animals-bats, wolves, birds of prey-and learn all about their habitats. Then discover the Secret Oceannow showing in 3-D the LeFrak Theater before the night comes to a magical close.
Settle down beneath the 94-foot-long blue whale, next to African elephants, or at the base of a striking volcanic formation and fall asleep in the darkened halls of one of the world's most beloved museums.
Please RSVP early as we will be accepting checks immediately as space is limited and we exceeded 125 attendees last year. Children must be 6 years of age or older.
Please RSVP at [email protected] with the subject line: Sleepover at the Museum, include full names of all attendees as well as the age of any children.
