Watch for Free Kids Events

To keep kids entertained, look for free events. Sometimes programs offer 1 free class with no obligation. Gymboree, Little Gym, and Stroller Strides do this. Additionally, some churches have open play times for a minimal fee. If a church near you doesn't, see if your church might be willing to do that. All you need is a multipurpose room and some toys. The kids love it!

You can also check at your local YMCA, especially if you have pre-teens or teens. Our local Y has a multi-purpose room with all sorts of activities, including foosball and pool, I think. You might check to make sure whether your kid(s) need(s) a membership, however.

Check with your local libraries. Ours has many free events for kids and the whole family. They also have free computer classes for adults and ESL help.
