So, it’s that time of the year again. School’s out, the kids are home, and your sanity is hanging by a thread. I don’t know about you, but the thought of cooking three meals a day (plus snacks, because kids are basically bottomless pits) while trying to keep the little rascals entertained feels like an Olympic sport. And let’s be real, we’re all about finding shortcuts that save us time, money, and energy.
Cue the magical words: Kids Eat Free! Yes, you read that right. There are actually places where our little munchkins can eat for free, allowing us to adult in peace (or at least with slightly less chaos). Here’s a roundup of the best spots to hit up this summer:
1. IHOP
When? Every day
Details: With the purchase of an adult meal.
Pancakes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? Yes, please! IHOP is basically the hero we need but don’t deserve. And if I have to eat another short stack to keep my kids happy, so be it.
