| Family enjoying fall |
Fall is a great time of year. It's cool enough outside to rock cool fashion. However, it is warm enough that you don't have to cover that fashion with coats. You also have the opportunity to create some great fall memories with your kids. While all memories are special, I have to say those you can create for free have a special sort of appeal.
See below for a list of some free family friendly events in Pittsburgh,
