As the weather gets warmer, you and your family should consider visiting the 25Drivein in Greenwood, SC.
They show current movies at a great price, $5 per person or $20 dollars per car. They charge an $8 fee for bringing your own food, but they've got yummy diner style dishes at their restaurant for a decent price. And popcorn is only a dollar!
The drive-in is welcoming and friendly. However, I do recommend that you take bug spray. The mosquitoes are a nuisance in the summer. While you wait for the movie to start, you can eat at picnic tables, and your kids can play on the playground.
Bring your camping chairs or blankets and spread out in the grass, or sit in your car. Either way, the price, the food, the movie, and the nostalgia are excellent and worth the drive.

Letter Scavenger Hunt (A game for Two and Three-Year-Olds)
Materials
Five Sheets of Paper
Basket of Toys
Set-Up
1. On each sheet of paper in your biggest, clearest, and darkest handwriting, write a letter you've been practicing with your child. (You may create as many letter pages as you feel your child is ready to do.)
2. Fill the basket with toys that start with those letters. (Warning: Letters with similar sounds, such as "C" and "S" or "C" and "K, may add an extra difficulty when trying to identify letters.)
3. Lay the paper flat on the floor around the basket.
To Play
1. After practicing the letter sounds on each sheet, have your child sort the toys by placing them on the paper with the corresponding letter.
Warning: Have extra sheets of paper on hand because your child will start finding other bins of toys in the room to sort.
