Wander among giant ice cream cones in a life-size board game, meander through a giant maze, dress up and dance, create a masterpiece and more at the 13 th annual KidSpree July 19 and 20.

Join 35,000 others at Colorado's largest outdoor festival for children from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days at Aurora's 29-acre Bicentennial Park, 13655 E. Alameda Ave. Admission is free.

The award-winning festival features more than 60 hands-on activities and entertainers including stilt walkers, face painting, magicians, balloon artists, art activities, a musical petting zoo and more.

This year's theme is "Direct Your Own Fun," meaning lots of activities related to movies.

Find old favorites and discover new ones at this giant play land for kids. Let the littlest visitors play in their own safe haven at WeeSpree for infants and toddlers. Reach for the sky on a climbing wall. Paint a giant paint-by-numbers masterpiece. Sing like a star on the karaoke stage.

Parking is free at the Town Center at Aurora's southwest parking lot, with a free shuttle transporting visitors to the park located at East Alameda Avenue and Potomac Street, just west of Interstate 225. For more information, call 303-326-8FUN or visit auroragov.org/kidspree.
