Suggestions for Budget Day Trip Activities in MA/RI for Next Week

[3boymthr]

My kids (ages 8, 10 and 15) have next week off from school for February Vacation. We still have a good 2 feet of snow on the ground (if not more) so just shoving them out the door to play is not going to keep them busy. As I was just laid off last week, I'm looking to find a few activities to do with them that will be free or nearly free or for which I can get some good coupons so we don't have to stay home all day everyday. I'm going to check my library tomorrow to see if there are any passes available but at this late date, I'm not anticipating that many will be available as they book up quickly during February vacation. We live in Southeastern Mass near Gillette Stadium and I will probably take them to Bass Pro Shops one afternoon to use the shooting gallery with my bucket o' change. The older two boys are going tubing on Sunday with the Boy Scouts (Luckily, I paid for that before I was laid off). Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Many local libraries have activities for the kids during school break. There's a place in North Attleboro (Haven't been yet) called Wunder Kidz. Its a bounce house type of place similiar to Monkey Joe's. Also Monkey Joe's is in Danvers and appears to be reasonable for kids

http://www.patriot-place.com/SchoolVacation.aspx has some activities listed.

Also Chili's has kids eat free on Monday 2/21 and Tuesday 2/22

I know alot of our local libraries have free movies and they have a teen afternoon where they are playing a wii tournament.
