FREE Eats & Fun!

What's for dinner, mom?
If you're anything like me, dinner time and planning dinner is often times a challenge. I'm not too skilled in the kitchen, and quite honestly, as much as I'd love to be...I'm just not interested. There! I said it.
So okay, I have a few winning menus. Key word: few. Admittedly, our family finds itself on the hunt for a restaurant, fast food or sit down, that the 6 of us, depending on who's home, can agree on.
I do realize the many benefits of preparing and eating a meal at home, if not for anything else...it's the cost of eating out that makes a home cooked meal appealing. It's freaking expensive to eat out. A quick trip through Taco Bell (quite possibly the cheapest menu in town, yes?) and I'm easily forking out $40. Minimum!

So, JAK is compiling a list of area restaurants with yours and mine family budget in mind. This is by all means not a complete list. For now we're just whetting your appetite and as we learn of other #FREE or cheap eats for kids and families, we'll continue to build and update this list. So DO SHARE any and all options that you know of by posting a comment, or emailing contact@justaddkidsonline.

Silly Banned

The Rubber Obsession I think my 6 year old son was the first in his class to be told he can no longer wear his silly bands or Silly Bandz (not sure if they are the real thing, or imitation, who really cares?!) to school.  That was already back on September 2nd, his second day of first grade.  That started it's own trend, the full blown ban of those rubbery. colorful, object-shaped bracelets in his classroom.  Perhaps we'll see the full school ban in the future, or has the fad run it's course? If you're a pair of dad entrepreneurs, you hope not!  They recently jumped on the Silly Bandz craze and brought to market The Original Silly Stand , designed to do what else, but keep those crazy rubber bands organized. In my house, I think we need a Silly Bandz detector. I swear, we must have a over 100, but who even knows where they are (although I dedicated a container for each of my younger silly band wearers).  The funny thing is, my kids aren't wearing them a...

A Great Summer Read

Library Summer Reading Programs of Heroic Proportions! by Just Add Kids Founder, Paula Herrmann Reading over the summer months can make a huge difference for kids when they get back to school in the fall. With a lack of summer reading, children can actually loose up to three months in reading skill. Summer reading loss is cumulative, leaving some kids years behind as they get older. By the end of 6th grade, kids who lose reading skills over the summer may end up being two years behind their classmates. Wow! I know, you don't want your kid to end up on the low end of the reading spectrum. Don't let your kiddo's reading skills take a blow this summer. Read more... Our area libraries have once again come to the rescue in offering summer reading program incentives under "Every Hero Has a Story" and/or "Escape the Ordinary",  this years themes for a nationwide summer reading program collaborative of public libraries.
