You don\u2019t need to break the bank to have fun this summer. We know all too well the \u201cI\u2019m bored\u201d combined with the rising prices of gas and groceries means a summer bucket list of free activities is a must!<\/p>\n

\nAdd these fun, free activities to your summer bucket list:<\/h3>\n

1. Visit a library. Libraries don\u2019t just allow you to borrow books or read while there. Many libraries offer free summer programs for children.<\/p>\n

2. Call and schedule a tour in your community. These are often forgotten, but they are so much fun! You can tour your local fire department, a pet groomer\u2019s shop, a sports stadium, etc.<\/p>\n

3. Sign up for Kids Bowl Free<\/a>. Check out their website to see which bowling alleys near you participate in this program. Children receive two free games of bowling every day all summer long!<\/p>\n

4. Visit a local museum for one of their \u201cfree days.\u201d Many museums offer free days throughout the summer for children. Whether local or you venture to a different museum, you can explore museums by area and inquire about their free days using Museums for All<\/a>.<\/p>\n

5. Participate in Michael\u2019s craft workshops<\/a>. Michael\u2019s offers fun, themed craft sessions\u2014Camp Creatology\u2014on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays throughout the summer.<\/p>\n

6. Learn to DIY at Lowe\u2019s DIY building workshops<\/a>. Children get to build and take home a different creation once or twice a month!<\/p>\n

7. Get building at Home Depot kid\u2019s workshops<\/a>. Workshops are offered the first Saturday of every month, all year long.<\/p>\n

8. Become a junior ranger by completing the Junior Ranger programs<\/a> at National Parks (and home!)<\/p>\n
