Frugal Friday

I'm going to try and post a frugal tip each Friday. We will see how it goes. I would love for my tips to be something I have tried, but at times it may be something I have just read about. Today's topic is frugal fun! I'll list a few ideas. Maybe you have done a few of these already, maybe you know more of what to do, but the ideas are endless.

1. Have an Easter egg hunt at night. I bought 16 glow in the dark eggs the other day for this activity. I can hardly wait to do this with the kids.

2. Fly a kite. Melanie has a kite that was bought for $1.00 and all the kids have been flying it.

3. Do something special for others. This is the perfect time to make a little Easter basket of goodies and give it to someone special. Someone who may need a visit. We visited an elderly couple just yesterday. We did not even bring anything, just ourselves, and everyone had a wonderful time!

4. Begin a family journal with pictures of what you do this spring/summer.

5. Look at old photo albums and talk about past events together.

Where did you get your glow in the dark easter eggs? Were they expensive?
