Lookie-here!! I found the schedule for the South Park Theatre!!! Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 10am... but not free, $2 over the age of 2. But parking is free. Now I just need the Summer Concert Series calendar. One step at a time.
I have also decided that Thursdays are the big excursion day at Chez Metzger. I impulse purchased CLO tickets this afternoon. I had been thinking about it and then the flyer came in the mail and well, they have a Thursday matinee and well, that fits the rule and I called. I just hope the boys enjoy it as much as I think they will.
At the library today I checked out a pile of books about Pittsburgh and Western PA, hoping to get some leads on less popular destinations. I am only beginning to go through it, I will share any findings, soon. The problem is that there isn't a single comprehensive book of things to do that is appropriate and educational for kids in this area. So, you pick up 5 books and they have pretty much all the same information, just hitting the highlights. Like I said before, the highlights are really good, but how many times can you hit the highlights before die of boredom? Trust me, I am getting close.
I am on a quest! Whatcha doing Thursday?

Another idea! What about Ligonier? They have some kind of festival -- Ligonier Days, iirc. But (more importantly!) Kathy's Kreations (owned by Kathy Zimmerman) is in Ligonier. It wouldn't hurt to get a little yarn into your summer. Here's the link for Fort Ligonier Days, http://www.ligonier.com/fld.html, but it's in Oct.
And check these links out -- lots of little festivals. I see that Trax farm is having a Strawberry Festival in June. http://www.riversofsteel.com/routestoroots/MonEvents.html

I have given you lots of ideas, here is one more, on the fun side when they won't have to learn, but just have fun.
