That's a lot of things for your kids to do each day! Not to mention the awesome guides like, where to fish, camp or hike with kids. Indoor play parks, drop in art studio's, best parks (over 180!)  I also have a guide to the best sledding hills up, so check that out too!  There are a lot of great GUIDES on my page - just click the GUIDE button in the blue bar in the center of the page!
