Freecycle

Have you heard of freecycle.org? It is a nonprofit movement that allows users to post information about things they wish to give away instead of filling up our landfills. You join a local Yahoo! group (information is on the website), then you can view, respond to, and post items. Check out your local group by going to http://www.freecycle.org/ and looking up your location.

Zoo Memberships

Zoo Memberships are a great way to save money on family friendly events. We have purchased a zoo membership to the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens for the past several years. With our zoo membership you can get free admission to the zoo year round for your family, free parking, a discount on food and at the zoo gift shop, free rides on the carousel and train, free guest passes, and admission to the Festival of Lights during Christmas. The great thing about zoo memberships is that when your purchase a membership at your local zoo, you will also get free or discounted admissions to other zoos across the country.

If you live in the Cincinnati area, check your mail for discounted rates. We usually get one in the mail that offers 20% off of membership rates.

Here are the rates before any discount at the Cincinnati Zoo:

Craft Time: Barbie and the Three Musketeers

My daughter is crazy over all of the Barbie movies. So in order to celebrate the new movie coming out last week, we made Barbie Musketeer Masks before we watched the new DVD. Click here to for a printout of the mask craft instructions. We used foam board for the mask and then glued glitter and feathers to the mask. My little girl thought these were great!
