Kids B.A.S.E. and the Little School (K.B.L.S.) hosted its first Fall Festival for K.B.L.S. families, alumni and friends on Saturday October 5. Over two hundred children and their families, as well as K.B.L.S. teachers and staff, participated in this free, fun-filled family day outside at K.B.L.S., which featured bounce castles, arts and crafts, face painting, tattoos, games, prizes, food, a DJ, games with K.B.L.S.'s Coach Steve, visits with Scarsdale Fire Fighters and a fire truck, a backhoe from Cum Laude Construction Group for children to sit on, and other activities graciously provided by K.B.L.S. enrichment providers Kids R Cookin', Beadz and Scarsdale Strings. The festival was planned by K.B.LS. parents and staff. Approximately seventy parents volunteered their time to run activities at the festival, most of them with their children.
