After months of being cooped up inside and longing for the temperatures to warm up, it's time to get outside and have some fun. There are plenty of fun things we can do with the kids that don't involve the TV, video games, or anything else that takes place in the confines of our homes. And the best part is that getting some much-needed fresh air doesn't have to put a strain on our wallets.
