Donut Pool FloatI’m not going to lie, I have never really considered myself a bargain shopper. But with several kids, it’s taught me to have a plan and pinch some pennies. Alas, I bring to you: Fun Things To Do This Summer For $5 Or Under!

 

  1. Kid’s Summer Movie Series ($5) – Each week at 10am, the Pier Park Movie Theater is playing a movie for kids! That’s a movie, a small popcorn, and a small drink for 5 bucks. Say whaaaat?
  2. Summer Reading Program Events (FREE) – Head down to the Coastal Branch Library in South Walton for some fun! Each week is a different theme. Check out the dates + times here. Info should be released soon! 
  3. Aly’s Beach splash pad  – Okay, what kid doesn’t love splash pads!? You can hit up the splash pad and even grab a snack at Raw + Juicy!
  4. E.O. Wilson Biophilia Center ($5 for kids 4-12, FREE for kids under 3) – Enjoy trails, animal shows and feedings, and an interactive museum. Perfect indoor (and learning) activities for a rainy day! Located in Freeport and open to the public in June & July from 9am-2pm on Thursdays and Fridays.

Whitney Tomlin
Whitney is originally from a little town in North Alabama, but has been calling Santa Rosa Beach "home" since 2011. She's been married to her husband, Michael, for almost 10 years and together, they have their daughter Charlee (6) and son Beckham (1). Whitney is a stay-at-home mama to Beckham while Charlee takes on 1st grade and her husband runs his crazy Real Estate business! They are currently in the process of adopting (again!) and are matched with a baby girl due in December. You can always find her at the Starbucks drive-thru at some point in her day! She enjoys spending time with her family at the beach or pool, lazy rainy days, advocating for adoption, and a fresh lash fill. You can follow her family and their latest adoption journey on her instagram, @whitneytomlin.
