Each Summer I always try to prepare myself and my schedule for as many free and cheap things as possible. It seems like ages ago since we went to a movie but with these Kids Summer Movie Schedules you are sure to find some great flicks this Summer!
Even if you are traveling on vacation you can still find a kids Summer Movie near you if you look at one of these locations! Some locations offer FREE movies for reading a book while others offer a kids meal pack and movie for under $5!

We love taking advantage of various Summer Reading Club programs from a variety of different libraries. Since I look up lots of different Summer Reading Club dates and activities I thought I would share those with my loyal local readers! Our family usually takes part in a handful of programs at various library locations around the Miami Valley but I am always looking for more free family friendly events especially for my teens. (Edited: With the limitations put on libraries and parks due to the coronavirus I thought I better update this post every couple of weeks during 2020)
Each Summer I build our calendar around the free programs that I find and Summer Reading Club programs are a big part in our fun! I am loving all the variety of programs the libraries I have contacted so far have told me about from STEM to music to art. We also make sure to prepare Summer Reading spaces as soon as the weather is warm and are sure to look up the Kids Summer Movie schedule.

Since Big Red has learned to ride a bike without training wheels it is time we go on a family bike ride! We will need to check that each person has a bike and that the bike trailer’s tires are still holding air which Lil’ Red will ride in. Since that means we have 5 bicycles to check it could take all week long to get everything prepared. We also buy our bike tires and tubes online since it’s cheaper so we have to factor in some additional time for shipping.
Even if it’s too hot or too rainy for a family bike ride this week we will prepare for a family bike ride by doing the following things:

We do not go to Mote Park very often and I am not really sure why. It offers a lot of things to play on for all of my children. The main play structure at Mote Park consists of a set of stairs, 3 slides and two rock wall climbing areas.
The swings and Merry-Go-Round at Mote Park are located right next to each other in the mulched playground area. Children can easily run back and forth from one play structure to another with ease.

The play structure at Robert M. Davis Park is definitely geared towards toddlers and preschoolers. The entire play structure is lower to the ground then most parks and the steps are shorter for easier access for little ones.
This photo of the back of the play structure shows three ways to climb up onto the structure. There’s a curved set of wire bars, a chain ladder and a curved set of metal steps. All great ways for younger children to practice their gross motor skills.
