Go to the park and have a picnic.
Have your own cooking class, with you being the teacher. Your girls will love learning how to bake their favorite cookies.
Have a readathon. Go to the library and pick out some books. Come home and spend the evening reading together - and don't forget the junk food.
In our state, places like the zoo, museums, planetariums, and gardens have free days. Call and find out if this is offered where you are. It is usually pretty crowded on these days, but it is still a lot of fun.
Camp in the backyard. You can sleep in a tent or under the stars. Make some smores (marshmallow, graham cracker, and chocolate) sing songs, and tell some scary stories.
Go for a walk. If you live in an area with mountains you can go hiking.
Give each other simple manicures and pedicures. All you need is some water, lotion, and nail polish.
Volunteer. Even at the ages of 9 and 10 there are plenty of opportunities to volunteer (hospital, animal shelter, etc.).
Have game night. Break out the board games and pop some popcorn.

In My state every Wednesday evening during late spring early summer the park presents a series of movies on the lawn for family enjoyment , So I suggest that you make inquires about whats going on in your city that's free family entertainment. Also the Public Library has special events that are free and of course you can check out movies with your card.

games. ones already that exist or make some up.
how about camping? You don't even need a tent if you don't have one. Just grab some food from the fridge, a few blankets and go camp!! ROUGH IT!! tell scarry stories over the fire and have fun!! Take a hike, explore nature! That's FREE! It doesn't cost it only takes the will power to get off the couch and GO! You'll be happy you did!!!

All depends on where you live. We tend to go to the beach or the park a lot. Also, if you have friends with a pool that is a great help.
Also, re-watching old movie tapes that we have has been fun.

Do you have access to a pool ? A lot of neighborhoods have a public pool...it's a great way to stay cool and have a lot of fun for very little money...the kids will sleep better too after all that exercise !!!

I nonetheless try this, while the toothpaste gets all the way down to the backside i will decrease the tube open and scrape the final little bit out. i'm no longer as inexpensive as i'm lazy, and that i hate paying for toothpaste.
