I am always looking for fun things to do with my kids in Philly! Now that spring is here, my girls want to enjoy every minute of the warmer weather! I can't lie, I love an easy day to the park. Since we're homeschoolers, I like to pack a lunch and spend the afternoon out and about because it gets too busy! I know every parent doesn't have that luxury but that does not mean you should put off simple days at the park! Honestly, it's a great way to make memories and save money!
