The idea for Kids on the Hill came more than 30 years ago, when my mother wrote the equivalent guide in Oxford, UK, to fill a need in the local parenting community. 30 years later that book is still in print and still immensely popular. It’s legacy is Kids on the Hill. I wanted to write a book which speaks directly to parents, caregivers and friends of Chapel Hill kids, while supporting the businesses and resources which make our community such a wonderful place to live. After a couple of years’ hiatus I am going to republish KOH as a blog.
