This weekend, several area festivals and events cover a wide range of interests while featuring the sights, smells and tastes of autumn. Celebrate the season in the greater Cleveland/Akron area with these fun, family-friendly fall happenings.

The September 2019 issue of Northeast Ohio Parent offers a bounty of fall fun, from area events to must-do items for your family's seasonal bucket list. We also cover teens and technology, profile two local families who battled a childhood cancer diagnosis, and include relevant information for every school age and stage in our annual Education Guide.

Have fun this month with a visit to your local library, museum or area attraction, many of which offer storytimes, crafts, and other fun activities designed for young children.
