Happy Mother’s Day weekend!
We hope everyone has a restful and fun Mother’s Day. If you don’t have plans set yet, check out our 20 ideas for spending Mother’s Day in Pinellas.
I couldn’t find as many freebies for mom as I hoped but there are a few. Mom’s climb for free at Vertical Ventures rock climbing in St. Pete and Hatchet Hangout Axe Throwing in Clearwater is giving moms free throwing on Mother’s Day.
The two big aquariums are also running specials for Mother’s Day weekend. Admission is 50% off for moms at Clearwater Marine Aquarium and moms get BOGO tickets at Florida Aquarium (and here’s our guide to local aquariums).
Some other cool events this weekend are the Fine Art Museum’s “Painting in the Park” family event. The event is free and kids can go through 10 different art activity stations.
The Florida Orchestra is also doing music in the park on Mother’s Day evening, including some John Williams favs like the Jurassic Park theme.
And finally, don’t forget to check out our list of kids eat free deals — the Greek City deal happening today is awesome because you get two free kids meal instead of one.
Have a good weekend!
Elizabeth and Malena
