Fall Fun Fest

Fall Fun Fest comes to The Mall at Green Hills on Saturday, October 10, from 10 AM to 1 PM. It's presented by Nashville Parent Magazine, and the whole morning is built for families with kids. If you're looking for something to do with the little ones on a Saturday morning, this is a good spot to start the day.

The morning is packed with the kind of things kids actually want to do: games, crafts, snacks, music, and face painting. There's also a selfie station for photos. It's a loose format, so you can drift from one activity to the next rather than following a set schedule. Just a heads-up that the activities are available while supplies last, so if there's something specific your kids are eyeing, it's probably best to get there on the earlier side.

You'll find the whole thing on the lower level of the mall, just outside Dillard's. If you're driving, the Emerald Parking Deck is the recommended place to park—it'll save you from circling the lot. The mall is at 2126 Abbott Martin Road in Nashville, and the event runs from 10 AM to 1 PM, so you're in and out before lunch.

As for tickets, only the children need one; adults don't need a ticket to come along. That's a helpful detail if you're bringing a group of kids and a few adults to help keep them in line. Between the games, the crafts, and the face painting, it's a full morning's worth of stuff for the kids to get into.
