10 family activities that won’t break the bank

Written By Sandrine | SmartAlpaca Marketing

Family fun doesn’t have to break the bank! Call a family meeting, give everyone 10 small pieces of coloured paper and get them to write an idea on each piece. Depending on the ages of the children, you can set a budget or just enjoy whatever idea pops up. Put all the ideas in a jar and draw one anytime you need a new idea.

I’ll start you off:

  1. Potluck dinner with friends and family

  2. Hiking or skating in natural beauty - and maybe an ice cream or hot chocolate on the way home!

  3. Gifting experiences for later in the year for birthdays or Christmas

  4. Mini golf

  5. Taking advantage of your city’s offerings, like BMX tracks on off nights, outdoor rinks and toboggan hills

  6. Outdoor movie night for the neighbourhood kids

  7. Garage Sale hopping

  8. Geo caching

  9. Nerf or Super Soaker challenge with a trophy for the winning family

  10. Send me an email with your favourite family idea!
