Kids enjoy the return of the Glow Foam Party — which featured two cannons this year — during Newton Fest on June 7 at Maytag Park.

The kids zone at Newton Fest featured a number of inflatables, a climbing wall, mini-golf and laser tag on June 8 at Maytag Park. Kids participate in obstacle courses and take a try at the fire house during Safety Fest on June 8 in Maytag Park.

Safety Fest is regularly organized by the Newton Fire Department.
