Give the kids a more detailed understanding of the role of the police in our community when you take them to visit the Glendale Police Museum. There are many interesting exhibits and attractions that detail various aspects of police work. In addition, get up close to some historically significant pieces that include vintage uniforms, guns, photos, mug shots and other assorted items that paint an all-encompassing picture of the importance and development of police work in American society.

Give the kids a chance to see and experience all the fun and hard work that is part of life on the farm when you plan to bring them to the Annual Family Farm Day in Glendale. The Tolmachoff farm holds this annual festival in June and it is an excellent opportunity to visit the farm with the whole family. There are plenty of educational and fun things to see and experience, a couple of the most popular being the train rides and photo ops with a pony.
