 8 Cheap Activities To Do With Your Kids
By Jennifer Shircel

 

These inexpensive ideas are sure to get your kids creative juices flowing!  The kids will love them because it gives them something productive to do and mom will love them because they’re easy and cheap!  

1.)    Fly a kite at a local park.  Kites can usually be found at any local dollar store.  We found a cute Tigger kite at our local Dollar Tree.  

2.)    Blow bubbles.  Now how cheap are bubbles, like $.50 a bottle?!  Kids can have contests to see who can make the most or the biggest bubble.  

3.)    Make an “I love You” card for someone.  Or is someone’s birthday coming up?  Let the kids be creative and make a friend or relative a card from the heart.  

4.)    Paint Rocks.  You can find rocks anywhere.  Let the kids be creative with some paint, markers, ribbons, beads and glue.   

5.)    Catch fireflies, ants, bugs or butterflies.  Summer nights are perfect for catching fireflies and they are so neat as a nightlight.   At your local dollar store, you may also be able to find a cheap ant farm.  These are so much fun!!  

6.)    Put together a puzzle.  These always keep kids entertained and busy.  

7.)    Make paper airplanes.  Let the kids make their own, decorate them and then fly them.  

8.)    Frame their hands and feet!  Have your kids put their hand prints and feet prints on paper and then frame them in an inexpensive frame.  This is something that you will love down the road when the kids are grown.
