Great article but your national park week link does not work :-) Me and my family including my home school daughter will use April 14th-15th for a science and history field trip!
Thanks for letting me know about the link! It should be fixed now, so anyone can do a search on the website for a national park of interest =)
Thanks for the great freebies! I love hearing about them. We have a Meijer nearby, but I was unaware they had events going on today.
