Library resources
Libraries are a very underused but amazing resource for children and families alike. Library cards are free and open up a whole new world to everyone. They are air conditioned in the summer and many offer programs though out the summer for everyone to enjoy.
Many public libraries also offer tickets to area attractions/events so your family can enjoy them either free or for a discounted rate. Here is a listing of area SAILS libraries and their ticket offerings:
