By Steven Jorgensenn


4 of Atlanta's most well-liked destinations for kids will provide unique Trick or treat activities throughout October. Residents and visitors to Atlanta will be able to appreciate these fun Halloween celebrations on quite a few future weekends.

Zoo Atlanta, located in Grant Park, offers Boo at the Zoo on October 23, 24, 30, and 31. This family celebration is geared toward young children, who are asked to wear their costumes. They will be able to meet the characters from Zoo Boo Town, experience the magical path through the zoo, and appreciate some unique Halloween treats. Kids ages six and older might enjoy the Boo at the Zoo NightCrawler on October 23. Come spend the night at the zoo and find out what goes on behind the curtain after hours, while taking part in some special seasonal activities. Zoo Atlanta is 1 of Atlanta's favorite destinations for families.

The Georgia Aquarium, located within the heart of downtown Atlanta, converts into the Georgia A-Scary Um! for Halloween weekend, October 29-31. The Aquarium will be decorated in a Halloween theme, and candy stations will be scattered all through the facility for kids to Trick or Treat. Young visitors will be able to partake in the Halloween crafts and activities, while also enjoying the regular displays at the Aquarium.

Located just a block from the Aquarium is Atlanta's Imagine It! Children's Museum. This museum is geared for kids ages 8 and under. On Saturday evening October 23 the museum will open from 6:30 to 8:30 for a Halloween party. The activities provided will consist of crafts, games, and fun surprises. There will be special shows by the Imaginators, the museum's professional troupe of performers.

The Fernbank Museum of Natural History, located east of midtown, will host a Halloween Sleepover on the night of October 30. This program is readily available for kids ages 7-12 years. Participants will spend the night at the museum and appreciate lots of fun, hands on activities led by museum staff. Kids will look for clues to help them discover a unique artifact hidden somewhere in the museum. The evening will conclude with a Dinosaur Dance Party.

All of these Atlanta children's sites will offer entertaining and safe seasonal activities for their young guests. These activities are becoming common options to standard Trick or Treating. Parents can be assured that their children will enjoy plenty of fun at any of these attractions.
