Free festival welcomes fall with bounce houses, pumpkin decorating, a magician, and more
SOMERVILLE– Fall in New England means crunchy leaves, cooler temps, pumpkin spice everything and…Somerville Rec’s annual Fall Fest. Families are invited to the free celebration of the season on Saturday, October 3, from 1 to 4 p.m. at Founders Memorial Rink (8 Garden Court).
The fall-tastic afternoon will feature bounce houses, music, a magician, pumpkin decorating, face painting, and plenty of fall-themed fun for kids of all ages. Costumes and cozy sweaters are welcome but not required.

The October 3 afternoon at Founders Memorial Rink sounds like an easy way to welcome fall without making costumes a requirement. Pumpkin decorating and a magician give kids different things to try, and the free admission is helpful for families planning a Saturday outing. I recently came across a game called dead plate, so games were on my mind, but the bounce houses would probably be the biggest draw for the kids I know.
