Are you looking for a unique Easter activity for your children? The City of Santa Clarita Government, in collaboration with Kaiser Permanente, is presenting the Splash ‘n Dash Egg Hunt, a one-of-a-kind twist on the traditional egg hunt. This event, designed for children aged 10 and under, will feature eggs with hidden treats inside, released into the Aquatic Center’s Waterslide Pool. The event promises a fun and exciting experience for the young participants.
As Easter approaches, parents and caregivers often prepare Easter baskets filled with sweet treats. However, Kaiser Permanente’s Health Educator and Nutritionist, Anna Leszcynsk, offers some innovative ideas to make these baskets a bit healthier while retaining the traditional Easter fun. One of her delightful suggestions is the Almond Delight, a homemade energy ball recipe that is not only tasty but also packed with essential nutrients such as protein, healthy fats, magnesium, and fiber.
