No matter your entertainment budget, there are always wonderful ways to spend time together as a family in Mid-Michigan. Every month we’ll highlight free events every family can enjoy!

Free Family Fun Events in Mid-Michigan February 2019

If you’re looking for an activity to do with older kids, you may want to check out this fun and free event hosted by the Chippewa Watershed Conservancy on February 2nd, 2019. Families can go snowshoeing at Sylvan Solace. To reserve snowshoes, call 989-772-5777.

Have a Home Depot nearby? Kids can make a Valentine Candy Box at this month’s free kid workshop on February 2nd, 2019. If you live in Midland or Mt. Pleasant, workshops are scheduled between 9am – 12noon. Kids will get to take home their craft, receive a certificate of completion, a workshop apron and commemorative pin while supplies last.

The West Midland Family Center wants to keep you moving despite the cold temperatures winter brings. This February 5th, 2019 families are encouraged to come out and give martial arts a try at no cost. Participants must sign a waiver before each class; however, free opportunities are available every Tuesday through June. A full list of winter activities offered through the family center can be found here.

Let the Chippewa River District Library host your family date night! On February 8th, families can join Kim Darst from Husky Haven Sled Dogs as she shares her experience competing in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in Anchorage Alaska. You’ll also get to stand on her sled and interact with one of her dogs! Pizza from Dominos Pizza also provided.

Head on over to Mid Michigan College’s Harrison campus for a Winter Blast February 9th, 2019. Families can learn how to geocache, create a pine cone bird feeder, learn how to snowshoe, ride a fat tire bike, test out hockey skills, and relax with a cup of hot chocolate. Event takes place 10am-2pm.

On the first Saturday of every month families in the Mid-Michigan region can participate in free Kids & Culture events hosted by Art Reach of Mid-Michigan. This February 9th, kids and families are invited to the WCMU Public Media studio to participate with PBS’s latest program, Lets Go Luna. The event is scheduled from 10am – 12noon and will include a story time and valentine-making craft.

Whether you or your child is a plane enthusiast, this event is unique in that it gives kids the opportunity to go up in an airplane and learn about flying from the perspective of a trained pilot. This Young Eagle Rally is taking place February 9th from 9am – 12noon at the Jack Barstow Airport in Midland. Call Jeff Gallant at 989-948-4704 to register for this event.

Great Deal on Nintendo Labo! Only $39.99 — Regularly $69.99!

January 28, 2019 by moneysavingduo

Nintendo Labo Set

Please note: This post may contain affiliate links which means that if you click through them and make a purchase, we may be financially compensated. We just thought you should know. 

Check it out! Nintendo Labo kits are on sale! If you have a Nintendo Switch, these are a must have item.

Our oldest LOVES video games. So much so that its really challenging to get him off screens. Anyone else have a child like this? But for Christmas we scored a great deal (although not as great as this one) on the Nintendo Labo Kit featured below and it was probably the best gift we’ve ever gotten him!

He was excited that it worked with our Nintendo Switch… we were excited because it got him off the screen, building and creating cars and fishing poles, that he would eventually use in coordination with the Switch. We’re talking HOURS off the screen without even asking. Parent Victory!

This set is currently on sale at Best Buy for $39.99 – that’s $30 off the regular price. Plus, if you have a Best Buy close by you can choose in-store pick up and get free shipping.
