Bass pro shops usually is a good spot to go. Not saying the aquarium because that is not cheap but the store itself is like a big outdoor museum. They also have a gun museum in their and a boat section. Also has some turtles and fish and some alligators on display. Lots of stuffed animals. Sequoia Park is also a nice park. Has a trail and a big lake that birds tend to go to. Also has a playground for kids. Also Google neighborhoods that do Christmas light shows. Those are pretty cheap and always a nostalgic classic.
