if you have a health care care or pension card you can get into the museum for free- otherwise its a small charge
but be warned- pomeii is on at the moment and the lines are long, but if you dont have to pay, you can get in quick!
The fire station museum is also a good one and they do free displays one day a week. Kids get to see the fire hoses etc in use and they can climb all over the fire trucks afterwards and try on the fireys jackets etc. Its located just off victoria pde!
Fitzroy gardens and the fairy garden, botanical gardens are suppose to be ace as well
there are markets at southbank on a sunday and they are good as well
go have a look around at docklands- sometimes free things there as well
there is a website that has a list of whats on in the city- its called that's melbourne
The lolly shop at Southbank is a great place to go as it's fun watching them make the lollies.
Not sure if it's still there but from no 3? dock there was a free ferry. It is a restaurant one but we only had coffee and a great trip on the Yarra.
The city tram or bus is also free to get around. Vic Market is a great place to walk around and you are near gardens.
