🦕 Shows & Exhibits Worth the Hype
These are the kind of experiences kids actually remember.
Dino Safari: A Walk-Thru Adventure — Boston, MA

Mummies of the World: The Exhibition — Los Angeles, CA
This one’s at the California Science Center, and it’s the final venue for the exhibition. Families can see mummies from ancient Egypt, South America, and Europe, plus CT scans, burial objects, and more.

☀️ Bonus stock-up deal: Sam's Club Membership: $15
Sunscreen, snacks, juice boxes, popsicles, paper plates — if you've tried to buy all of that at a regular grocery store in July, you already know.
Right now you can grab a Sam's Club membership for just $15. That’s 75% off for new members with auto-renew.
Stock up once, don't think about it again. That’s the dream.
A few things to check before you buy
Before grabbing any deal, read the fine print. Check expiration dates, blackout dates, age requirements, location, parking, and whether you need a promo code at checkout.
And if you’re buying for a whole family, do the math. Even a smaller discount per ticket can turn into a pretty nice savings when you’re buying four, five, or six tickets at once.
Summer deals can disappear fast
The best CertifiKID offers are often limited-time deals, and availability can change. Before you pay full price for summer fun, check what’s available now.
More deals — including amusement parks, water parks, zoos, movies, exhibits, concerts, and more — are waiting at CertifiKID. Worth bookmarking before you pay full price for anything fun this summer.
