Family Activities in Madison

By June the Memorial Park bandshell has a concert most weeks, and that's the easy weekend dinner plan with a kid. The Madison Public Library on Keep Street runs storytimes, craft hours, kids book clubs, and a summer reading program that draws steady weekday traffic. Loantaka Brook Reservation sits just over the township line with a paved trail that handles strollers, scooters, and beginner bikes for a few miles. Drew University at the south end adds a quieter walking loop. The downtown is dense enough to fit a library trip and lunch into one outing. Bandshell, library, Loantaka. Three things, one weekend.
