There’s no shortage of fun stuff to do with kids around Denver this season. But how do parents and caregivers make the most of the holidays without stressing out or emptying their wallets? Host and mom Bree Davies is joined by fellow parents Linnea Covington, managing editor at DiningOut, and David Gilbert, writer and local history buff, to map out the best ways to make memories with your kiddos during this most wonderful time of the year. From free hot cocoa and no-cost holiday scavenger hunts to elaborate light displays and visits with Santa, we’ve rounded up a variety of options that children — and the adults tagging along — can enjoy!

Bree mentioned a video of the old, elaborate holiday displays at the long-demolished Buckingham Square in Aurora.
