This post may contain affiliate links. Please see my disclosure.

Welcome to our 2nd edition of the new Fun on a Dime link-up (I really need to get a button made)!! There were so many wonderful ideas, I decided to spotlight them all! I’m posting a few of the more “frugal” activities over here at Motherhood on a Dime. Feel free to check out the rest over at The Amazing Mess!

Family Friendly Frugality shares a quick, easy, and frugal recipe for pea salad!

These sun cookies from I Can Teach My Child have four ingredients!! They would be a wonderful craft AND recipe to make for a simple service project!

The Activity Mom has created free printable play kitchen recipes. My middle daughter loves her kitchen, and she would have a ball “mixing” up the recipes!

Coffee Beans and Kisses shares a great project for summer fun — shaving cream!! It’s frugal (and messy)!! Just what we like around our house!

——————————————————————————————————

I’d love to see your “Fun on a Dime” ideas! Here are just a few rules:

No giveaways or links to your homepage — please link to your specific post.
This linky is open to any family-friendly activities, projects, and recipes (posts deemed inappropriate will be deleted).
Please place a text link back to Motherhood on a Dime at the bottom of your post (something as simple as “Linking up to Fun on a Dime at Motherhood on a Dime” is perfect)! I’ll try to have a button next week!
Please comment on at least one or two other posts — it’s always encouraging to receive comments!
