2/5/2019

 
Kelly Ingram Park in Birmingham, Alabama
You might be thinking that you have been to every place and done every activity you can find in Birmingham, but you are wrong. There are still a lot of things you can do in Birmingham for free, and with children, so you can bring your whole family along!

Here are some ideas for you to do with your family this summer.

OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Gardendale Splash Pad
Located at Celebration Park, Fieldstown Road, the Gardendale Splash Pad is the best place to freshen up. If you plan to go there with a big group, you need to prepare a permit they require to let you in.

FREE MOVIE NIGHTS
There are some spots in Birmingham where you can catch a movie for free. You only need to bring your blanket, popcorn and be there early so you can get a perfect spot. Some of the locations for the free movies are the Veterans Park which shows movies every Fridays. The Birmingham Botanical Gardens also opens its door for movie-watching activities. Finally, you can head to Black Creek Park every Friday to enjoy Movies in the Park.
