Looking for something to do with the kids on a school holiday? The Kids’ Fair, organized by the office of Will County Executive Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, will be held Monday in Joliet.

The free event offering family-friendly activities on Presidents Day, a day off from school, will be 9 a.m. to noon at Troy Middle School, 5800 W. Theodore St.

“This event is a great event for mom, dad, grandparents, and caretakers who are looking for a family-friendly activity on President’s Day,” Bertino-Tarrant said in a news release on the event. “Last year’s fair attracted over 800 attendees and I’m hoping that more families take advantage of this fun, community-centered event.”
