This is kids' country

IRIS SMOOT/Acorn Newspapers CHILD FRIENDLY- The community is definitely geared towards the younger crowd. In fact, kids around here have more to do than they- or their moms and dads- can keep up with. A typical weekend includes several events such as these. Below, Adriana Fajardo, 2, of Calabasas, laughs as opera vocalist Matt James sings just for her at the Pops Concert on Sunday afternoon at Calabasas Lake. Meanwhile, right, Agoura Hills resident Savannah Sharp, 3, paints a cardboard city "Box Town" during the Stand for Children Day Party in the Park at Conejo Creek Park North in Thousand Oaks on Sunday. The event, hosted by the Conejo Valley Day Care Association and Conejo Recreation and Park District, featured face painting, a rock climbing wall, train rides and a wildlife show. This coming weekend holds several more activities for the young at heart. For more information, check Datebook on page 36A.
