"What's New" Wednesday!

Today is "What's New" Wednesday!  That's the day we go check out a place that we've never been to before and let you know all about it!  So....I've been hearing a lot about the Orem Library.  They are always advertising all kinds of free concerts, plays, etc.  At a library?  Really?  Needless to say, I haven't paid too much attention to it.  Then I remembered today was the day to try something new!  I persuaded my 21 year old son to go check it out with me.  (I knew he'd tell me straight up if it was worth recommending!)  Well....the verdict is in....we LOVED it!  (It's definitely not your typical library.)  I spoke with the guy that is in charge of all the events.  He showed me all around and gave me the inside scoop.  They can seat 200 people comfortably in the main area, but they have had a whole lot more than that show up at times! (They're actually building a new center at the library where all of the events will be held.)  It's a pretty popular place, apparently!  They have a media room downstairs, where screenings of free movies are held regularly.  (It projects onto the entire wall!)  There's also a really cool area for story time, with a BEAUTIFUL puppet theater!  Our favorite part was the HUGE stained glass window that covered the entire wall in the back of the library!  It had almost every fairy-tale in it that you could imagine....kind of like a collage.  Our favorite ones were "Romeo & Juliet" and" The Princess & the Frog!"  (My son's an artist, so he really appreciated it!)  Anyway, we'll definitely be keeping you updated on all of the FREE events they'll be having.

Here's the Puppet Theater that goes from ceiling to floor!

Ready for some Fun?!

Welcome to our little corner of the blog world!  

We're just a couple of fun-lovin' Moms who think that every day deserves to have a little bit of fun thrown in the mix...
especially when it's FREE!  

We started Free Family Fun on facebook, when we realized 
just how many FREE activities we were missing out on!  

We wanted to share what we had found with other families that love doing things together....

but without breaking the bank!  

Most of the activities we've found so far are in Utah....
since that's where we live.  

BUT, our goal is to create a place where families from all over can find/share activities in their area too.  So, if you know of any really cool things going on where you live, please tell us about them!  In addition to all of the activities you'll find here, we'll also be sharing some of our favorite things that keep the family going ....you know, the fun stuff....

like cooking, cleaning, crafting, service, etc!  

(Yes, we'll show you how we make even the most mundane tasks seem a little more bearable!) Every day we'll have a different theme that you can follow along with...

• "Make a Craft" Monday (fun & easy ideas to get your creative side going!)
• "Tradition" Tuesday (things that we can always count on)
• "What's New" Wednesday (we'll visit a new place and tell you all about it!)
• "Time to..." Thursday (tackling those chores that we've been putting off)
• "Food" Friday (we'll share our favorite recipes....we hope you will too!)
• "Sensational" Saturday (a fun, FREE, family adventure!)
• "Service" Sunday (making the world a little better, one good deed at a time)

Which of your friends would enjoy doing FREE activities with their family?  Be sure to "share" this with them too!
