When we had a string of miserable days, my response was, “Where can we go on an adventure so we don’t drive each other crazy?” And, by the way, since money was tight, I always looked for free or nearly free things to do. Being new to the Bitterroot Valley, I was looking for some adven- tures to do with my grandson and when kids come to visit. There wasn’t any obvious list of things that would work with toddlers and preschoolers, so I thought it would be fun to put one together and share it with others. My goal was to put a lot of information in one place with contact information so you could check it out more thoroughly yourself as things change. I make no claims to have included everything, that everything will work out or that all the information is totally accurate.
