My first pick is The New Children's Museum . Children ages 0- teens are able to enjoy the museum and the museum encourages children to touch, create and play. The second Sunday of each month is free and they are open from 10-4PM. If you are unable to make it the second Sunday admission is $10 for adults and children, which is still quite affordable.
My second pick is San Diego Children's Discovery Museum this museum is good for children 6 and under. It allows them to touch, build, create, and explore their senses. The museum is $5 per person for children and adults. This is a great place to take kids and teach them new things at the same time.
My third pick for children is the water conservation garden. This garden is free but they suggest you donate something. This garden is beautiful and children love to smell flowers. This garden shows visitors how to conserve water and have beautiful flowers. They offer several free classes and guided tours if needed.
City Fest is a "Celebration 'of community and spirit' with live music, arts and crafts, food vendors, and much more. This event will be August 14 from noon- 9pm. They will tons of activities for kids and adults.
San Diego Guild of Puppetry is displaying a puppet art exhibit by adults for adults. This event is free just call ahead of time to make an appointment to go by and look at the exhibit. 619-886-2594
