Coming Attraction: Free Natsumatsuri 'Summer' Festival at Japanese American National Museum

CC and I love the Japanese American National Museum downtown in Little Tokyo. Remember this time and this time?

So I was excited to hear that the museum will be hosting its free Natsumatsuri Family Festival on Saturday, Aug. 10, from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. "Natsumatsuri" means "summer festival" in Japanese, and the museum has a lot planned for the kiddos.

If your kids love drums (CC does!), they'll love the Taiko demonstrations and performances. There will also be origami lessons, a bounce house, a toddler room and crafts, including fan-making.

Sounds like fun! Hope to see you there!
