My girls when they were much “littler” enjoying a free Summer Saturdays program at the Tennessee Agricultural Center! This is one of the best kept summer secrets for family fun in Nashville in my opinion!
Now that I’m gainfully unemployed (for the time being any way!), I’m all the more motivated to find inexpensive fun family outings. Here are just a few great kid must dos for family fun in Nashville, and beyond, for free or nearly free:
Carmike Cinemas Summer Kid Series through Aug. 9 – $2 for a kid’s flick (older features but good ones), popcorn AND a drink. You can’t beat that, especially with the price of 3D movies. Don’t get me started…
Leiper’s Fork Lawn Chair Kid’s Movie Night – Movies on the 2nd and 4th Friday of each month now through August.
Home Depot Kids Workshop – Every first Saturday of the month. Miss A is so wanting to do this!
Two-Punch Tuesdays at Sweet CeCe’s – Love getting our sweet tooth on for cheap!
Free Craft Events at Michael’s – Another great crafty kid idea.
Get a free Gigi’s cupcakes on your birthday when you sign up for their rewards program. The original downtown location also has Happy Hour Tuesdays in the afternoon from 2 to 4 and cupcakes are half price! Visit their Facebook page for more info.
SONIC Happy Hour – Every day from 2 to 4 p.m. you can get drinks and slushes for 1/2 price. And milkshakes are 1/2 price after 8 p.m. My waistline is not really happy about this discovery, but it’s been perfect since Miss C’s soccer camp ends, conveniently, at 8 every night this week.
Tennessee Agricultural Center Summer Saturdays – Now through July 28. Love this program! And don’t forget the Music and Molassess Arts & Crafts Festival this fall.
Frist Center – Free admission for kids ages 18 and younger.
Moe’s – Kids eat free on Tuesdays.We love hearing “Welcome to Moe’s!”
Tip: For a great website listing other kids eat free options in your neighborhood, check out Out to Eat With Kids (great search engine!)
Wishing Chair Productions – The Nashville Public Library’s marionette shows are amazing!
Warner Park Nature Center – Great Summer Saturdays programs and more.
