REMEMBER WHEN USING THIS LIST REMEMBER THE TEN MILE RADIUS RULE- IF YOU CAN GET TO HOME AND BACK WITHIN TEN MILES YOU’LL SAVE ON GAS TOO!
HERE’S SOME MY FAVES…
1. Backyard- Pools are cheaper by the sale paper…get the radio out there turn the box…you got your own beach atmosphere and summer of fun.
2. Discovery Green – Discovery Green in Downtown Houston always has stuff going on. A lot of it free…check their sked online…but gas prices—remember trip costs
3. CHUCK E CHEESE– they have coupons online Sunday paper and go early to avoid the craziness
4. The Houston Zoo – The Houston Zoo is interesting and approachable.. The train station is located near the ticket booth at the zoo. It circles Hermann Park and it’s a fun experience for kids.
5. A NON 3-D Movie—It has to be something incredible for me to drop 12 bucks per person…but if the theatre is close you may want to spulrge since you saved money on gas
6. Parks Around The Area -early morning or late afternoon-bring your own sandwiches
7. Neighborhood Pool-nuf said…
8. The Children’s Museum of Houston – This place caters to kids. So it’s no surprise this makes a Top Ten list. The Children’s Museum of Houston isn’t just loved by Houstonians, but it was recently honored by Parents Magazine as the number one Children’s Museum in the country. Somedays used to be free-so check their website
9. McDonald or any fast food restaurant playplace-cheap lunch, free play-go as break avoid fast turns to lunch
10. Movie day or night at home– pop your own popcorn, rent a movie from ondemand or better yet a one dollar redbox…
