Our Free Entertainment For This Weekend

So I’ve really been trying to cut down on our entertainment budget by finding free things to do both at home and in our community, and to that end, I’ve been searching the net for free stuff and ideas. Wow! This is a great weekend for free entertainment.

First, we’ll be having two movie nights this weekend which will be fun because it’s rare that we all have a free night to sit through a whole movie. Tonight’s free movie will come from Redbox. You can get a free movie code by texting MOVIE TIME to 727272. We haven’t rented from Redbox in quite a while; so I’m anxious to see what new titles are available.

Tomorrow’s movie night feature is Wreck It Ralph. I’ve not seen this one, but it should be great fun. You can get a free digital copy of this movie for a limited time by signing up or signing in to your Disney Movies Anywhere account and linking it with your Google Play or ITunes account. Once your accounts are linked, Wreck It Ralph should automatically show up in your apps or under “my collections” on your Disney Movies Anywhere account page.

Also, tomorrow morning we’ll be headed to our local Lowes Home Improvement store to participate in their Build and Grow program. This time, the project is a science lab kit complete with activity cards to continue the learning at home. We’re really excited about this one. We’ve been to Build and Grow several times in the past, and it has always been a great experience.

We have a birthday party to attend tomorrow afternoon. So we won’t be able to participate, but I also wanted to mention that Saturday, November 8, is Try Hockey for Free Day. Over 500 facilities around the country are offering a chance for youth between the ages of 4 and 9 to try out the sport of ice hockey. You can visit the website to find out if there is a participating location near you.

Here’s hoping everyone has a fun and safe weekend. If you know of some great free family entertainment, feel free to share it in the comments.
