Get ready to have some Festive Family Fun in a safe manner. In the comfort of your own vehicle.
Macaroni Kid Monterey Park - San Gabriel - Alhambra - Rosemead bring you, The Mac Kid Holiday Home Light Up and Scavenger Hunt!!
With all of the uncertainty, changes and hardships 2020 has brought, I wanted to do something special for families in our community. Normally we host a Mac Kid Candy Cane Hunt. I knew that was not possible this year. So, I thought and dreamed up this idea of a map of homes in which families could enjoy from safety of their own vehicle, but add a fun interactive twist to it! A Scavenger Hunt!! With the help of 3 AMZING and Giving sponsors, they believed in our vision and helped us bring it to light. A huge Thank You to Nothing Bundt Cakes in Rosemead.
Ingrid also has another location in Pasadena on Lake Ave. If you have not heard of them, you NEED to stop by soon!! Order the perfect holiday cake for your family. We recently enjoyed the Pumpkin Spice for Halloween and Thanksgiving. And I highly recommend the red velvet. Our next sponsor is another family small business. Remery Law Firm. They specialize in Estate Planning and Personal Planning. Conservatorships and Guardianships. Probate and Trust Litigation. Trust Administration. Copyright. Trademark Registration and Policing. And Business Law.
And our last sponsor. Vizen Optometric Center in San Gabriel is another small business who is dedicated to helping take care of your family's vision needs. They accept many different types of insurance and see children. We are looking forward to taking our kids in for their annual eye exams. Keep an eye out on more information from all of these amazing small businesses who all offer something to help families.
