I know that parents with young kids have very little spare time and I am happy to get a 30 minute to 1 hour spin after my kids go to sleep a couple times a week. I've used a cycleops mag trainer as well as wind trainer (noisier but more resistance). I bought the cheapest rear wheel I could from QBP so I can slap a cheapo tire (under $10 fire sales from Nashbar) on it with harder tread on it for my trainer.
A fan is good to keep cool as pointed out earlier.
