#6 Museums (free days)
There are a lot of museums that are now funded by the government which are free, some of which are actually rather good. But then there are those museums that charge an admission fee. The marketing departments of many of these museums see a whole bunch of free advertising when they run a free admission day, so they end up doing them quite regularly. I therefore recommend staying up-to-date with your local newspaper or news website (or even news channel). They are bound to feature a free admission day.
Be aware though, if the event is only for one day (although it’s usually longer) there could be some crowds, so get there early. Again, this is a great opportunity to get your kids interested in new topics (such as cultures from around the world, paleontology, archeology, biology and all the other ‘ologies’ you can think of).
