Selfie Saturday

There is something special about a Saturday spent entirely on foot in downtown Henderson. Our Selfie Saturday Family Challenge calls for no rushing and no big spending. Just tacos, sidewalk laughter, family photos, and maybe a scoop of ice cream if you’re good.

Start your afternoon at Tacoholics. On Saturdays, one kids meal is free with the purchase of an adult meal, which means you’re fueling up without draining the wallet. Tacos are universally approved by even the pickiest tiny diners, so this should be a relatively drama-free experience.

Once lunch is handled, it’s time for the challenge.

Downtown Henderson doubles as your selfie backdrop thanks to a growing collection of vibrant murals. Make your way to each one listed below and strike your best pose, funniest face, or attempt a coordinated jumping shot. Let the kids direct one photo. Try a mid-air jump. Be dramatic. Be silly. Be Henderson proud.

Then send your photos to Henderson Family, we just might feature your crew in an upcoming issue.

After the cameras are full and the laughter quota is met, make one more stop at Butler Apothecary, where single scoops are just $2. Share if you want. Don’t share if you don’t. We won’t judge.

From there, it’s just a hop, skip, and jump (and we truly recommend doing the hopping and skipping) to Sunset Park.

Let the kids run through the playground and work those sugar wiggles out, while parents take a breather watching the Ohio River drift past.

Family time on a budget. On foot. In the heart of your hometown. What could be better than that?
