Kids seem to be used to being told to not touch things. But at the Children's Museum of Cleveland, they are encouraged to enjoy all of the many interactive, hands-on activities that are available to them. The venue's many exhibits and attractions feature everything from exploring the sands found in Galapagos, pirate adventures for treasure, and various family-oriented presentations. It's a great way for the kids to have fun while they are learning!

For a classic evening of unforgettable music, plan to take in a performance of the Cleveland Orchestra. The city's symphony brings the works of such composers as Mozart, Beethoven, Strauss and Brahms to life in their many performances. In addition to an already busy year-round entertainment schedule, the orchestra offers special seasonal concerts to lift your spirits in a most melodic way.

County fairs always seem to bring out the best in people. That tradition still holds true at the Cuyahoga County Fair held every August. The fact that the fair has been held every year for the past 115 years speaks volumes about its tradition and popularity. Check out the farm animals in competition but don't forget to treat yourself to the fried cheese and other tasty snacks. More than twenty midway rides, 100 food vendors, country music and a demolition derby all make this a must-attend festival!
