- Join them at Dorothy Lane Market for Storytime and Tasting
- Start making Back To School freezer meals (Once A Month Mom has some great suggestions)
- On those days where it's sweltering outside there is still Kids Bowl Free All Summer available
- Go to a Dayton Dragons: McDonald’s Friends and Family Night
- Visit the park (several Kettering Parks recently were redone, and there will be more in the future)
- Attend those last few Vacation Bible School before they are done
Thanks to Family Fun Mom for her inspiration!

So during my bi-monthly scan of iTunes for free kids stuff I found some new FREE episodes of some of our favorite kids shows. We downloaded them onto our iPad and iPhone for vacation this summer. Ok, when I say "we" I mean "me," and when I did it I MAY have used up a little too much memory, so my suggestion is to download them NOW while they are free and then only put a few on your device if you are short on space. Oh, and these are all full episodes, and I don't know how long they will be FREE.
Are We There Yet? World Adventure: Mexico
The Backyardigans: Polka Palace Party
Blues Clue: Blue Wants To Play a Song Game
Dinosaur Train: Armored Like an Ankylosaurus/ Campout!
Dora the Explorer: ABC Animals
Dora the Explorer: Dora Had A Little Lamb
The Fresh Beat Band: Band Together
Go Diego Go: Linda the Llama Saves Carnival
Pocoyo: Make Friends With Pocoyo
Team Umizoomi: The Butterfly Dance
Word World: Runaway O/ Happy Birthday
