One of the most popular events in downtown Indianapolis every summer is Meet PBS Kids in the Park which takes place this Saturday downtown from 10 am to 4pm at American Legion Mall. Every year the event gives children a chance to come face to face with some of their favorite characters from PBS Kids shows. (Not going to lie, I've never been too good for PBS Kids. Sid the Science Kid? SESAME STREET? PBS spanks cables trash most mornings.)

The short list of characters your kids can come face to face with include:

• Arthur
• Clifford
• Cookie Monster and Rosita
• Curious George
• Sid the Science Kid
• SuperWhy

There will also be three stages featuring not only PBS entertainment but also plenty of local talent along with bounce houses and over three dozen tents with arts, crafts and activities for kids. Did I mention that this is the free event for the four foot and under set in downtown Indianapolis this weekend?

Looking for a restaurant to hit after your afternoon in the park? Here you go.
