    Where do you live? If you live near any large cities or resort towns, there is usually a lot of stuff to do for free or near-free. Of course, festivals cost some money (usually for food), but you have to eat something anyway and they usually have activities for kids :)

    Other ideas:
    -hiking
    -going to the beach/lake
    -arts and crafts using stuff at your home (ex. paper machete)
    -feeding the ducks/birds (Pretty affordable, and a great way to get rid of bread that is getting old)


    Good luck!!

    Walking in local parks becomes a new adventure when I give the kids a camera to find beautiful pictures of things. We just collect them on the computer so its free. Leaf, flower, insect identification books can be used at the library if you don't have some on hand. Free & educational!

    We live in small town in Indiana about an hour from Chicago (small meaning 700ish people).
