well I have a few ideas that are relitivly cheap but can be done over a long ammount of time.
1. Centre ville island, it's super cheap, and there is lots to do for every one that goes there, if you like the beach there are a few to choose from including a clothing optional one, there are a few kiddie rides there along with lots and lots of walking paths and historical points of interest, not to mention when you take the boats back be sure to do it after sunset as you get to see it setting over the city, and you then see all the lights reflecting off the lake, its really romantic too, and there are a few food places there that are really good for the budget minded, parking is extra.
2. Canada's Wonderland - it can be expencive but really if your going for the fun of it, it can be enjoyable on a budget, just make sure you hit a Mac's store before going as they sell passes that will save you about $20 on entry. Parking is $10, and food can be a bit pricey but there is a subway across the street, along with a few places to eat at, and you can re-enter the park as many times as you wish at anytime during the day with your hand stamp.
3. If your into to Gaming, there is always Sega City at Square One Mississagua, and you can get play all day passes, and there is a resturant in Playdum, and there are many games to choose from, including rock climbing, go-carts ( extra ) and batting cadges.
4. Not sure on the location but there is the new Olympic themed museum / attraction next door to the Eaton Centre, I have never been there myself, so I can't say how much it would cost, or what parking will be like.
5. The ROM is always a good idea as well, when there is an showcase on going there you can spend the whole day in there looking at different things all day long for about $30, not Including parking, and there are many resturants in the area to choose from, from bistro style to fast food.
6. The Science Centre is always another good attraction, it's been a while since I've been there but they are always having something going on monthly and most of their featured exhibits and regular exhibits are all interactive.
7. Toronto Zoo - really good idea if you like to look at animals, and there is always something going on there, plus it's a great idea if you love to walk and take pictures of animals, and and exhibits. Down side to the T.O. Zoo is Parking is $18.00 for one car!
That's about all I can think of at the moment.
