Money Saving Ideas:  Frugal Family Fun

Library Reading Programs
Library story times and summer reading programs are fun. Last year my daughters got coupons for free ice cream,
tater tots, french fries, small toys and bookmarks just for reading (which they would have done anyway).
-- Member Tinamarie

Treasure Hunt
Getting kids going on a treasure hunt can be lots of fun.  During the warmer months, write clues that lead your
kids to certain objects, for example: an oak tree if you're in the park, or a dandelion or buttercup in the garden.
Leave another clue in the spot where they find the answer to the first one, and so on.  I usually do 15.  The first
one to get all the clues wins a prize. -- Member glitterbug

Family Fun Night
We have Friday fun night at our house. My children define this by:
Every member of the family has to be there
It doesn't h1. We have to be doing something fun together
2. It has to involve something good to eat
3. ave to be expensive, just fun.  During the summer riding our bikes to the park, hang out then come back
for root bear floats, make pizza together, and have an Uno marathon.
-- Member Voni

Money Talk:

Grocery Budget Spreadsheet
I know that some of us have a budgeting spreadsheet and/or software that we use to track all spending,
bills, etc... But, do any of you have a spreadsheet specifically for groceries/household spending?

them as gifts now. The best part is this month they're free! Get the

How Busy Moms Can Start a Business (And Still Get Dressed in the Morning!) by Kathy Wilson
One of the biggest hurdles Moms face when starting any home business is how to manage the home, the kids,
and a job, all in the same place! It can be done, and many of us actually even find the time to put eye makeup
on every day as well!
