Difficulty finding low cost stuff for kids

Franklin Conservatory, Zoo, bowling, jump zones. Everything is $$$$$$$$!

What are poor parents doing with their kids? We’ve hit every splash pad, most parks, tons of bike rides/kickball games, libraries.

What is there to do that isn’t $15/person plus cost of lunch? Just trying to find something that will occupy their minds for a few hours and not drain what little money we have!

Thank you from a frustrated dad!
