Ideas for Summer Fun and Schedules?

Hi C.!
One thing you might want to check out is your local library. They usually have a pass program to local museums/zoos/parks/etc. where you can get in for free or for a large discount. A lot of the libraries network together, so if your branch doesn't have something available, another might! I've gone on some great outings using these passes - Mystic Aquarium in CT, Roger Williams Zoo in RI, the Ecotarium, Children's Museums, and a lot more!
Have fun!!

In Framingham there is a museum called the Danforth. They have some wonderful art classes taught by art teachers from colleges and some of the area high schools. Wonderful programs. Check it out on line. The second I have heard is in Westwood has fishing, archery ect. The name escapes me. If you called their parks dept. the name will be on the tip of their tongue

If your girls are athletes there is the Sarah Behn basketball camp. Wonderful programs held all around the metro west for young ladies to work on their skills. Also Mass Premiere Soccer has a traveling soccer camp. Both of these are easily googled and found. Good luck and enjoy.

If you're willing to come into town, a picnic on George's Island is fun. Your girls can investigate the old fort. Bring a frisbee or a racket ball. You can also give them the very brief history on the place so it's slightly educational as well.. http://www.bostonislands.org/isle_georges.asp. Also, I recommend visiting the gocitykids.com website. They have an activity finder that lists events and activites by specific age group and you can even select based on weather i.e. actives for rainy days! Hope you have an enjoyable summer!

Boston Parents Paper has some great ideas. It's Free and you can pick it up at grocery stores, kids retail locations and a million other places. They also have an online calendar. bostonparentspaper.com. The calendar is to the left side of the home page.
