This holiday season will feature events different from the traditional staples we’re used to. But that doesn’t mean they won’t be any less uplifting, fun, or just distracting during a time when most of us will remain “home for the holidays.”

Oaks Park Cinnamon Bear Show
The Cinnamon Bear has been a beloved holiday tradition in the Portland area for more than 80 years. During this unusual holiday season Oaks Park will host a live, drive-in performance that can be seen from the warmth and safety of your own vehicle. PDX Parent says the show offers a way to get a “little bit of that Christmas magic back.” Holiday songs, adventures and more for young kids.
