Winter Fun for Free (or almost free)

Monday, January 25, 2010


Yes, ask my boys, and they will say that WINTER is their favorite season! They not only love sledding, snowball fights, and ice skating, but they have discovered skiing. Now all but the last COULD be free or near free! Here are just a few quick ideas for winter fun!

Parks, including taking Fido to the dog parks- Both kids and dogs have a blast! Take a hike, so to speak!

School activities to watch or participate in - Our school system offer indoor swimming one night a week for $1.00/pp. Ballgames can be very exciting, and the dramas, choral and band shows are fantastic! All brought to you at reasonable prices.

Churches are hosting more and more opportunities- Many are offering organized sport activities too. With school’s having to cut many arts and physical education classes, it is timely that churches have compensated.

Museums – Our Indianapolis Children’s Museum offers a free evening every month, and our Indianapolis Art Museum is ALWAYS free! The Indiana State Museum and others, offer free or discounted opportunities.

Fun Food – There are endless ways to make cooking and baking fun with kids! They not only learn to prepare and appreciate the food, but it’s something they feel pride with, when shared with others.

Indoor Play Areas featuring inflatables and tubes- The one close to our home, offers a free evening and has other discounted coupons or discounted evenings available. Some fast food restaurants offer tubes for free…(Well, you probably should buy some food from them!)

Movie Theaters – Many have coupons online or cheaper times of the day, to see the same show.

Visit Another City- Just to see what they have to offer. Maybe they have a special museum or interesting shops, colleges, planetariums, or aquariums.
