GOODS

Everyone likes something yummy to nibble.

Fire up the oven and get your bake on. Baked goods are something nice to share with your friends and it probably won’t break the bank.

Baking can also be a good way to include the kids in some everyday fun and pass skills down to the next generation. Be sure to keep an eye on the cost of fancy ingredients though. Find things that are more affordable but just as tasty and everyone wins.

Having Fun For Less Get Crafty

Even if you are not “good with your hands” or don’t view yourself as a crafty person, why not give making some home crafts a try this year?

Watch some YouTube videos or find guides online and get inspired to make something fun for the kids or to give out as gifts.

There is real satisfaction in making something with your own hands and it can be both challenging and super affordable.
