Things To Do in South Metro

I need some ideas for things to do in the summer in the south metro.  I know there is the zoo, but we don't have a pass and probably won't get one til next summer, so I'm looking for something a little cheaper.  Any ideas?  TIA!

    Many libraries offer baby story time... fun and educational (and free!)

    Kelley Park in Apple Valley and Nicollet Commons Park in Burnsville have sprinklers to run through. Schultz Beach at Lebanon Hills Park. Caponi Art Park. Find a playgroup, or even just head to some local parks and introduce yourself to the other moms to start your own.

    The $50 you'd spend on an individual membership to the MN Zoo, if you live nearby, will make up for itself in 3 visits and then you can go whenever you want. There is so much to do there that it is definitely worth the investment.

    Also, all of the libraries have free passes to the zoo....you have to watch for them to get put out but then you can go for free....they also have a lot of other museum passes etc. too AND sign up for Macaronikids.com https://farmington.macaronikid.com/calendar/event/513570/ this calendar will show you everything in the area to do, mostly free! Also, burnsville has an event for kids on saturday the 12th in the heart of burnsville :)https://www.burnsvillepac.com/bpac-blog/all-bpac-blog/viewpost/177 - Jen Becker
