I have to admit I rediscovered the Cub House a few weeks ago and now I’m hooked. The Cub House is a wonderful, well-supervised play area where kids 2 1/2-10 can go for free while their parents shop. Trey and Kaitlyn have a blast playing checkers, drawing pictures, and seeing friends, and I get to shop in peace. Go to http://www.bashas.com/OurClubs/CubHouse.aspx for more information or to find a Bashas with a Cub House near you!
