Things to Do with Kids in Prospect Park South This Weekend

October 24–25, 2026 · 33 events · Brooklyn

Prospect Park South this weekend is dominated by youth sports and studio classes, but the selection still offers range: a free garden workshop at the Parade Ground's Bowling Green Cottage, a machine-sewing session at The Craft Salon, and a trial-semester ballet class at Brooklyn Studio. Families with younger children will find multiple soccer and art options, while older kids have sewing and ballet pathways. Note that several listings are multi-week series with tuition rather than single-session drop-ins, so check pricing and ages before registering.
