Grab and Go Kids Planner for March 16-20
It's that time again to look for some special things to do with—or for—your children.
So much to do, so little time to figure out just what you can do with and for your children. This week is easy. We've got a couple of plays, a kid's cooking class and a chance to watch sheep being sheared. See what else we've lined up for you as possibilities in our Kids Planner for Mountain View this week.
Where/When: , 3535 Truman Ave. Wednesday, 2:30-3:30 p.m.

Why Go: This is for your teen, not for you! If your teen is at Mountain View High and between 14-18, he or she should be at the jobs fair at the high school where Chris Familetti of the Nova Youth Employment Office will be on site to talk about summer job possibilities. It's never too soon to start looking!
Pricing: Free

Where/When: , 1401 N. Shoreline Blvd. Wednesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Why Go: Can you imagine life without your computer? Can your child imagine life without his or her computer? And this museum is in our Mountain View backyard? This week is as good a time as any to check it out.
Pricing: Free to $40 (depending on age, museum membership and your entry package).
Where/When: , 26870 Moody Rd., Los Altos Hills. Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Why Go: This walk is for your older children, from 12 and up. They get to take a guided walk with ethnobotanist Jolie Egert, who will point out and tell them all about the edible plants on the grounds of Hidden Villa. Good knowledge for the future camper and hiker.
Pricing: $20
Where/When: , 97 Hillview Ave., Los Altos. Friday and Saturday, 2 and 7:30 p.m.

Where/When: , 21250 Stevens Creek Blvd. Cupertino (Fujitsu Planetarium). Saturday, 5, 6 and 7:30 p.m.
Why Go: This is the last star show for the season; after this weekend, the planetarium will be closed until September. There are three different star shows Saturday night, so don't miss this last opportunity for a night of star gazing with your children.
