Halloween Picnic
Families of babies ages 0-18 months are welcome to our West Village Parents Halloween Picnic on Sunday, October 29th at Washington Square Park.

Our West Village Parents Halloween picnic filled up so fast that we decided to split the group and have two waves so we can accommodate twice as many people. More spots open now!

THIS SUNDAY 10am-4pm:
Bleecker Playground Halloween Festival
This neighborhood celebration of Halloween is simply the best. Hayrides, entertainment, kicking off with a parade of kids in costume at 10am starting at Abingdon Square. There is usually trick-or-treating at the stores along Hudson St as well.

Even more Halloween Fun ON Halloween at Washington Square Park
Community Board 2 and NYU put on the big granddaddy event for Village kids on Halloween Day, starting at 3pm at the fountain with a parade, then rides, games, and free goodie bags filled with treats.
