Free Fun This Weekend!

Looking for some free fun this weekend with the kiddos?  Check out these things!!  Let's hope the weather is good!

A.C. Moore - Thomas the Tank Engine Make and Take - 1 pm - 3 pm on Saturday.  Check your local flyer HERE for details.

Toys R Us - Barbie Extravaganza!  Toys R Us, Target and K-Mart all boast some retro Barbie on sale for $3 this week!  This Saturday, go to Toys R Us from 12 - 2 pm for all things Barbie.  Click HERE for more info!

Lowe's - There's a kid workshop this Saturday morning.  The choices are a tabletop basketball hoop or flower mobile.  Check it out HERE.  I think they say the ages are 5-12, but the people at my Lowe's lured my husband and 2 year old into trying this out one weekend!

Boston Central - Such a great site to find stuff going on in your neck of the woods!  We're actually going to check out a local maple syrup thing if the weather cooperates this Saturday!  Wouldn't have known about it without Boston Central!

St. Patrick's Day Parade! -  Yey!  It's that time of year again!  The weather kept us away last year but we're going to try to truck it on in this year.  It's a double bonus for our kids since we'll take the T in.  Two train rides AND a parade!  Oh my goodness!  And Bargain Time!!  Kids 11 and under get to ride free the T free with a paying adult!  Whoop!  Click HERE for parade details.  It's at 1 pm in Southie.

The parade should be fun this year...a little less public intoxication seems to be the order of the day for Sunday. Of course I did not mind the drinking while watching until I had kids...now, well, you get the idea. Thanks for the hints and the Boston site. I am going to check it out!

I hear automatic $200 fines for public drinking - but everyone is out there drinking!!

When we went 2 years ago, even though everyone was boozing it up, it wasn't rowdy at all! I think some teens got into a scuffle - but it was just some stupid 15 year olds from West Roxbury trying to get the Southie kids. Stupid teenagers.
