Free Things to do with the Kids This Week During Winter Break in Edmonton

I don’t know about you – but coming in 2018 means that we’re tightening up the budget to make more room for adventure and exploring. With the kids home from school for the week, it can be tricky to stay on track, so we got together and created a list of the free things to do with the kids during this week off of school.

Free Winter Fun Day | Tuesday Night 
The weather is warming up and it’s the perfect chance to get outside! Head out to Festival Place for a light show, fun, entertainment for the family and the chance to experience the ice slide – plus free skating and swimming admission!
