You don’t need a big budget to make visitation time count. A few low-cost or free ideas:

  • Arts and crafts, board games, or a puzzle
  • A picnic or a game of catch at the park
  • A trip to the library, zoo, or a children’s museum
  • Swimming at a community pool or lake, or a fishing trip
  • Flying a kite, planting a garden, or camping in the back yard
  • Free local events through your city’s parks and recreation department
  • High school sports, theater, or music events
  • A bike ride or walk that ends with an ice cream stop
