It's February Vacation! Yahoo! Need some free/cheap things to do? I know there are a ton of other things to do with the wee little ones around the South Shore - but I tried to focus mostly on the free/really cheap ones.
General
Visit a Library
Visit a State Park
Check out the USS Constitution
Go Ice Skating at a DCR Rink
Go Ice Skating at Hidden Pond at Derby Street Shoppes (Free)
Try out the Commuter Ferry! ($6 each trip, kids 11 & under ride free)
Sign the kids up for Weymouth Recreation's Day Camp ($14 per 4 hour time slot or $28 for 8+ hours - go 1 day, go all 5 - the choice is yours!)
Visit Bass Pro Shops in Foxboro - this place is amazing! They're having a free Boat Show the weekend of the 18th & 19th. Free kids activities from 1pm-3pm.
Visit Ikea! Usually there are some events during vacation. They aren't posted yet.
Go to a Playground! Snowing? Just put the snowsuit on the kids - they'll have a blast.
Stay at home and RELAX!
