Fountain Hills has a beautiful lake and the largest fountain in the U.S., china copied and I believe its taller. They have a park near it , and it has sprinklers, on during the day and you can feed the ducks and see the fountain, that shoots up on the hour. It is free and a little bit cooler than the valley.

My child does not like sports or he will not ride his bicycle , skates or anything like that, i ask him if he would like to take lessons of any sort ,he is not interested , only wants to play games on the computer or have play dates, and we do not know many children available for play dates,Any suggestions?

Be sure to check your local library. They usually have some kind of reading program.

See your local zoo or museum for more choices. Park and recs often have classes--some as simple as soccer or t-ball, but also have cooking, and other activities as well.

You may also want to check your local "Y" for their summer programs.

Good luck! And let us know what you find.
