Here’s the good news, parents: There are more ways to save than there are days of holiday break – at least if you’re a GreatLIFE member.

Here are our top seven for a week of fun – with plenty more where these came from.

For the kids who love all things Christmas

If you’ve not been to the Washington Pavilion this season, add it to your list, or make a repeat trip. GreatLIFE members, get half off on Sunday when you visit — all year — or save 20 percent on an annual membership.

The Pavilion looks extra decorated for Christmas this year, and your kids can enjoy holiday crafting in the Visual Arts Center or a screening of “The Polar Express” in the Wells Fargo CineDome. And don’t miss the family-friendly New Year’s Eve event starting at noon Dec. 31 and featuring a big balloon drop.

For those who are ready to strap on skates

Now’s the time: A new ice ribbon is coming downtown, and the city’s outdoor rinks are opening. If you’ve not yet learned to skate, take advantage of GreatLIFE’s member benefit with the Sioux Falls Figure Skating Club starting in January. Purchase one Learn to Skate session, and get a free private lesson. Plus receive half off an adult session with the purchase of a Learn to Skate session.

And if roller skates are more your thing, GreatLIFE members save $1 off skate time at Skate City anytime but Friday teen nights.

For those who can’t wait for spring

Get in a baseball/softball frame of mind with one of GreatLIFE’s newest member benefits at D-Bats. You’ll receive five additional credits with the purchase of a swing card for $15 or more.

For the parent who just needs to fit in a workout – or a massage

Don’t forget about GreatKids Child Care – it’s included in your family membership, and your kids will love going to the gym too. For two hours, bring your kids age 3 months to 12 years with you when you work out at Woodlake or Performance Center. Your kids will have a great time staying active while you use the fitness center however you’d like – from a yoga class and a training session to a swim and, of course, a massage.

For the kids who deserve some ice cream

It’s never too cold for ice cream, right? Take a family holiday break trip to any Stensland Family Farms location, and you’ll save 10 percent off your purchase as GreatLIFE members. That includes several favorites like white chocolate peppermint!

For the family dog who deserves an escape

Bring your four-legged family member to The Resort by SDK this holiday, and receive $10 off a Splash Bark day pass Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

For when you need a trip out of town

GreatLIFE members don’t just save in Sioux Falls. You’ll get a 20 percent discount at 38 hotels operated by Regency Hotel Management. That includes the Lodge at Deadwood if you’re headed to the Black Hills, the Best Western within walking distance of the Mall of America or this gem of a resort in Minnesota in the Alexandria Lakes area.
