This weekend, the outdoor summer fun continues with free movies, fairs and festivals, concerts, and celebrations of nature. This is the last weekend to take a ride with Thomas the Tank Engine and to enjoy the sweet summer delights of Alstede Farms' Blueberry Festival.

You can celebrate Summer in the Street in Toms River, see a Mad Science show in Paramus, and meet all kinds of creatures—both the winged and four-legged kind—at Wagner Farm Arboretum's Festival of Nature. Of course, don't forget about City of Water Day, an iconic FREE annual event in Hoboken and Governors Island.

Find ways to have fun without spending a cent in our list of 100 Free Things To Do with Kids This Summer in NJ, or make a day of it with 20 Super-Fun Summer Day Trips. 

Check out our July GoList to see our picks for this month's top activities, and as always, look to our Event Calendar for a complete list of happenings this weekend and all summer long. 

If you like watching movies under the stars—for free!—as much as we do, you're in luck: New Jersey will be showing hundreds of free films in parks and on beaches throughout the state this summer. Pack your chairs and blankets, put the kids in their PJs, and get there early to snag a good spot. Depending on the venue, you can either pack your own snacks or buy them onsite. And some events include pre-show activities such as dance parties, games, and meet-and-greets with movie characters. Don't forget the bug spray!

Scroll to the bottom of the list to find a few free (and practically free) indoor flicks—many of them shown in the morning—for those days when you just want to cool off in a nice, dark theater.

Black History Month kicks off with an exciting event in New Jersey this weekend: the grand re-opening of the Underground Railroad Museum of Burlington County. This weekend also offers opportunities to visit with creatures of the land and sea, with a Tots Program at Turtle Back Zoo and a Behind the Scenes Tour at Jenkinsons Aquarium.

Love is in the air with a couple of events heralding the arrival of Valentine's Day, including the Chocolate Festival at the Morris Museum in Morristown and a My Little Valentine craft workshop at the Crop Shop in Hoboken.
