Welcome to another week of recommendations for local, family-fun from Macaroni KID New Iberia-Abbeville-Breaux Bridge!
This week's newsletter is jammed pack with so many events, resources, and activities, so let's get to it! But, again with the weather this week, right?

However, there are still so many events and activities for local families to enjoy as we head into the second week of April. Make sure to check with local event organizers before heading out. We've also made several updates to our 2025 Easter Family Fun Guide, our 2025 Spring Festival Guide, and our 2025 Lenten Fish Fry & Seafood Guide, so make sure to check those out as well!
