FREE Summer Activities for Kids!

I  am so excited with all the FREE entertainment and activities for the kids this summer! It just amazes me how simple it can be to save money and still have fun! I love it!

Here are a few I see, list yours in the comments below:

UPDATES:

• Free Museum Admission – If you have a Bank of America credit card, ATM card, or check card;   Bank of America offers free admission to over 120 museums the first weekend of each month (which is this weekend). So, click here to find a museum near you. **Note:  According to the website, the free admission is for the cardholder only, so if you take your family, you’ll likely still have to pay for your kids’ admission. However, if you were planning on going anyway, it’s still a good deal.
