About me
I am Erica Alhorn and I live in Wheaton with my husband, three kids, and a cat. I was born and raised in the Western Suburbs, so rest assured I know the area well! I've spent my career working with family & parent focused tech startups. And I have found so much joy in searching all the best local places for my kids and I to explore together. So I'm excited about becoming your Macaroni KID publisher because I know, as a mom with young kids, how hard it can be to find things to fill your days and keep up with all thats happening around town. I'll keep the Macaroni KID Wheaton events calendar full of local events for families to help you find your family fun!
About Macaroni KID
Macaroni KID Wheaton is part of a national organization that includes local publishers in 4,000+ communities for more than 3,000,000 families across the United States and Canada.
In 2020, Macaroni Kid merged forces with CertifiKid, a nationally recognized website that offers discounts on kids' activities and family experiences. This merger means you'll find not only the best local content, but also deals on family-friendly attractions, events, and experiences.
And most recently announced in 2023, Macaroni KID acquired Hulafrog. The combination of CertifiKID, Macaroni KID, and now Hulafrog represents one of, if not, the largest parent-focused digital media and advertising companies in the country, reaching millions of families nationwide, inspiring entrepreneurship, and backed by an investment from Kevin O’Leary (aka “Mr. Wonderful”).
