Activity #257: Meow, bark and tweet at the pet store

by Whitney

in Free/Cheap, Month 12

here fishy fishyMy friend Mary (who had her son Del in the same hospital the day after I had Julian) gave this idea to our moms group. She said that 13-month old Del loves the pet store where he can check out the animals, especially the birds.

To kill two birds with one stone (no-offense, bird lovers), you could be a really nice friend and offer to pick up pet food for that post-partum friend of yours, meanwhile taking your older baby on a super fun and free/cheap outing.

We love the pet store as a fun outing! We can easily kill an hour looking at the fish, birds, cats up for adoption and dogs if any are being groomed. Plus, I can pick up cat food if I need it, or just use it as a free way to get out of the house!
