As parents in Toronto, Peel, and Durham are still scrambling to find a babysitter ahead of Tuesday's elementary school teacher walkout, many institutions are offering day-long programs for kids.

City pools and ice rinks are ready to welcome the crowds, while the ROM is offering a hands-on museum day for children 5-14.

The AGO is opening up to let kids discover and make their own art. Class clowns can register for a workshop at the Second City.
