We are lucky to have so many great creeks/trails in the Mercer County region where kids can splash and play -- and you can feel good about social distancing.
Here are five of my family's favorite creeks in the Princeton - Hamilton area to visit. Don't see your family's favorite creek here? Drop me a note at AngelaEarley@macaronikid.com and I'll add it to our list!
Put on a swimsuit, bring shoes good for creek walking, and don't forget snacks and sunscreen before heading out to any of these local area creeks! And remember, always watch your kids in water — no matter how shallow it is!
