Professional handstander on closed course! Do not try this at home. Instead, defy gravity on the rides at century-plus-old Oaks Amusement Park, open weekends in April and open daily starting June 18. Bonus: the roller rink is open Tues–Sat all year long.

Our locally owned kids’ boutiques offer everything from wallet savers to major splurges. For seven years Beanstalk (source of these old-standby shorts) has been a secondhand haven for the budget-minded, while Yo! Portland stocks a trove of whimsical prints from Swedish line Mini Rodini—which notably pays factory workers a living wage for the teeny organic cotton looks (including this monkey hoodie).
LEFT On Anita: Tati & Me garden party poppy dress, $89. On Nico: Mini Rodini cool monkey zip hoodie, $89 at Yo! Portland; Gap khaki shorts, $8 at Beanstalk.
RIGHT On Dania: Epic Threads chambray jumpsuit ($46) and colorblocked zip-up ($58), at Macy’s.
