[quote=Anonymous]Two kids in elementary school. After care is $670/month. Swim lessons are about $400/month. We do some other activities here and there but not as expensive - spring soccer will be $150/kid. One is in rec center basketball now for $60.

Just spent $800 for 4 days of camp over the holidays. Flying to see grandparents for spring break and their tickets were $400. We will fly twice more this year (also to see grandparents).

We do a summer pool membership that is $900 for the summer.

Registering for summer camps - one of the least expensive I’ve found but we need aftercare so for both kids that’s about $900 week for 8 weeks. Older kid wants to do sleep away camp this year so we’re hoping to be able to make that happen. Looking at ymca camp, I’ve heard that’s less expensive.

We do most of our clothes shopping at thrift stores so that’s not too expensive. They wear through their shoes quickly though, $50 each every 2-3 months.

Allowance is $5/week for each kid.

We probably spent close to $700 on Christmas. One birthday is coming up and we’re probably spending $300 on that, maybe a little more with party and gifts. Will do the same for the other kid.

529 is $500/month.

So many berries. They ate $10 in berries today. Thats not every day, but it’s probably not wrong to estimate $150/month in berries. And we shop at Aldi.
