I'll be in Roswell for 3 weeks inbetween moves. I have 2 boys, ages 2 and 4. I'm looking for summer activities we can do - stuff to keep us busy. Preferably stuff that's free or inexpensive. Maybe even a 'camp' type activity / sport / swim lessons.
Thanks for the advice!! I got the boys signed up for swim lessons at the Roswell pool. I'll add in trips to Monkey Joes, Imagine It, Chuck E. Cheeses, the park, etc. inbetween.
Living in Roswell has its perks! The Roswell Rec has all sorts of things going on in the summer and it's all subsidized by the city if you are a resident! Besides that, the parks are great. Get with the Roswell Rec and see if it's not too late to sign up for whatever summer camps you'd be interested in.
Roswell Area Park has a pool. The Roswell Library might be doing a storytime. Check their website. Also, take them to the Chattahoochee Nature Center to see the animals and run around. There's Monkey Joe's (jumping place) on Holcomb Bridge Road. Also check with the historic house museums to see if there are activities for that age group. To get the best information, go to City Hall to the Rec & Parks Dept in Room 100 and ask them for a summer brochure. They have all kinds of one-time and on-going events in there.
Have fun!

Check out the summer camps for Roswell Recreation and Parks for the older one. You may have to use a church camp or Bible School (free) to accomodate the younger or both of them.
Our Preschool at Roswell Presbyterian has a summer camp the week of June 9th. I don't know what weeks you will be here.
Try your various churches to see what is out there. Many have already had registrations for camp or it will be ending soon.
Good luck.

for a rainy day.. (OR sunny) you can go to Monkey Joe's which has giant inflatable slides and bouncy things to play on it's $5 per child so thats pretty inexpensive and you can stay and play as long as you want (u may not even have to pay for the 2yr old - not sure). my daughter is 1 and she enjoys it as well. there are 2 inflatables that are specifically for the 3 and under aged kids so the rambunctious older ones dont trample them and there is a floor play area for the young ones as well. [there's also a wide screen tv and wifi for the adults]. your kids can run around and play and get out alll that energy that little boys have and then go home and zonk out!
**there's a monkey joe's on holcomb bridge road in roswell and one on state bridge in alpharetta. there's also a jumperoo (similar type place) on holc bridg rd in roswell**
