Budget days out are great
Because I've given up work to be a mum, I've had to find ways to have cheap family days out. My girls really love going to visit the local farm. It doesn't cost much and we always have a great time. If you take a packed lunch, it costs even less, and is a great way to spend a day.

If you live locally to an attraction look out for special rates for local people or consider annual membership. It may seem pricey but when you add it up over a year it can actually be much cheaper. It would cost me £33 to take my family on a local cable car experience but annual family membership was only £44. We have been twice already and will go again before the end of the season.
