Waldorf, La Plata, Cobb Island and everywhere in between we have all the fun and free things to do with your family!
Get your snacks, bug spray and a change of clothes ready, because summer days are here!
A few tips I can give to beat the heat-
-Have a daughter? Have thin pants in your car for hot slides.
-Freeze watermelon slices to keep snacks cold and eat once thawed.
-Always have sunscreen/bug spray in your car so you are always ready.
-Plan your days out around when Kids Eat Free
