January has finally come to an end; did anyone else feel like it was much longer than 31 days? This month there are lots ways to enjoy family fun without spending a fortune - see our list of free events and activities happening this month. The Houston Family Magazine Camp Fair, Amazing Alligators at Octavia Fields Branch Library, and Sam Houston Trail Riders Reception are just a sampling of events from our Free February list, and they just so happen to be going on this weekend, too.

And did you know that there are 22 - yes TWENTY TWO - different museums around Houston that offer free admission on certain days and times? Couple that with a Kids Eat Free night and you've got the makings of an awesome day around Houston at minimal cost. 

Plus, did you hear that Mommy Poppins is taking family fun to the next level in February? All you have to do is check out our Ultimate Winter Bucket List, cross a few events off the list, then share your family fun pics on social media. Make sure you tag @MommyPoppinsHouston and #MPMadeMyDay when you post, because at the end of the month we’re donating $500 to the school or preschool of one lucky winner. February Family Fun just got kicked up a notch, that's for sure!

Make sure you also check out our event calendar and February GoList for even more free and cheap events happening around the city. There are so many great things happening you don't want to miss!
