Kids Summer Freebies & Cheepies

So every summer there are tons of fun cheap/free things for the kids and family.  Here is a list of things we hope to enjoy around here.

I'm a bit bummed that Regal Cinemas has started charging for their summer festival for kids. I know I know..$1 is still cheap, but sometimes we would go twice a week to each movie. For my family that would cost me $8 per week/$32 per month (not including the baby). Its too bad. Its not often you find people willing to offer a free service anymore.  Either way, here it is.
