For kids, summertime means funnertime. For parents, however, summer outings aren’t getting any cheaper. But there are ways to stretch the family-fun dollar. Here are a few:

The deals are good from May 1-Sept. 30 at a bounty of participating venues, including attractions like Butterfly World or Flamingo Gardens, museums like NSU Museum of Art or the Museum of Discovery and Science, and a summer’s worth of various water activities.
