My resolution this year

is to get out of the house with the baby more often. Now if I could only think of some (free) things for us to do. I signed up for several local mom’s Meet Up groups, but haven’t attended any gatherings because none have been close enough to our house or easily accessible via public transit. I think today we’ll go to the park, but aside from walks and park trips, I don’t have any ideas.

What kind of fun/free/cheap things do you like to do with your little one?

  2. aneasyworld said: Does your local cinema do Mum and baby screenings? I know it’s not free but it’s good to something for you that the baby can come along to too. Likewise Mum and baby aqua classes. Enjoy getting out. X
  3. kimcheez said: The library is always a favorite next to parks. Do you have a car? Tomorrow is free day at Bay Area Discovery Museum in Sausilito. Andthe Exploriatorium but I don’t think there is much toddler/young one stuff there. The Discovery was great for E.

  5. oceanage said: Check for ECFE classes near you. EarlyChildhood&FamiltEducation is what ECFE stands for. They’re like mommy n me classes. Check with a local school district. Also swim lessons would be another good outlet to try.
