Giveaway: All Aboard for Halloween Fun at the B&O Railroad Museum!



Who’s on board for Halloween fun? The B&O Railroad Museum has a couple of spooktakluar events for kids coming up, and I have two 4-Packs of Tickets to give away to two lucky KFDC readers!

Toddler Time Halloween Parade
On October 26 at 10:30am, bring the sippy cup to the B&O Railroad Museum for the year’s last Toddler Time — a Halloween celebration and costume parade. Choo Choo Blue, the museum’s mascot, will lead the parade. Children listen to a Halloween story, create a craft, enjoy a train ride through the fictional town of Choo Choo Blueville, and parade in costume around the Museum to collect special treats — all included with paid admission. The spooktacular event is a train load of fun you don’t want to miss!

Witches & Wizards
On October 28 & 29, kids of all ages can celebrate Halloween at the train museum on this magical adventure. Dress as your favorite wizard or witch and take a ride on the Wizards Express, see sword demos, and enjoy all kinds of “magical” activities throughout the day, including a Wizards show. See all of the fun that will be included in the day here.

Admission to both events is $18/adult, $12/age 2-12, under 2/free. You can also try to win free tickets in the giveaway below.
