Summer is here and we have our "list" of summer activities ready to go! Due to Joe's current job situation we will not be traveling and are on a limited budget so most of activities are cheap or FREE! Here is what we have lined up:
1. Movies in the Park. FREE event each month at the park with jumpy things, face painting, music, and a movie at dusk.
2. Bowling. Our local bowling alley has a program for kids to sign-up and bowl for FREE through August 30 - shoes not included.
3. Zoo. Considering a membership.
If we go 3 times it will be worth it.
4. Swimming. Since we have already joined the Rec. Center, admission to the outdoor pool is FREE.
5. Morning movies. A local church is showing a different kid movie each week for FREE. They also have FREE popcorn and 50 cent juice boxes.
6. Hiking & Letterboxing.
7. Library Summer Reading Programs
8. Jump Rope Club. We have started a club for the kids to learn jump rope skills, we have 16 kids participating!
9. Church Camps and VBS.
We are always looking for new ideas, what are your summer plans?
OK...first off, cute blog background. I like it.
ReplyDeleteNext, free summer stuff. We found out about a back yard water play group. We go each Wed. morning, every one brings suits, towels, chairs, lunch. The kids run through the sprinkler and little ones paddle around in the kiddy pool. I think it is a great idea.
We do have the science center and zoo membership, so let me know if you are going to go. We can head out there together.
We always pack a lunch where ever we go so we don't have to stop and buy food.
Instead of the icecream truck, I have a pack of freezy pops ready and they are more affordable than going out for a cold treat.
How about a book club. Pick a book from the library and get together with other kids and do activities.
We haven't letterboxed but have read about it and know others who have. They really enjoyed it. Let us know how it goes!
