Entertaining DGC on holiday

One game if it's rainy is: Take an old hat with a band round and stick a card in the band with a famous persons name on (or just a post-it note on the forehead). The child who is guessing wears the hat and the card is put in and as they can't see the name, by asking questions which the rest can only give YES or NO answers to, they have to guess who they are. These can be e.g. singers, cartoons, toys (e.g. Barbie) historical, scientists, a neighbour who you all know, television and film celebrities/characters etc. depending on their age. I usually prepare the cards beforehand and have some blank for them to write a name for me to play.

We spent many happy hours just rock pooling , crabbing and flying kites when our grandchildren were small. How about a beach treasure hunt or buy a couple of cheap disposable cameras each and let them take pics and then make a collage of the prints.. let them plan a meal , then take them shopping for the ingredients and let them help prepare , cook and serve it.
If the weather is nice just lay in the grass/sand and watch the sky/clouds.

You wouldn't want to be down here this week glass.its back to wet,grey and cold again. So pleased you were lucky.

Well if the sun shines on us maybe that's what we will do too glass! I just want to have some ideas up my sleeve in case it's poor weather.

gaga we had a week in Cornwall in July and while the weather was good the GC just wanted to be on the beach and in the water with their belly boards. I wish I was going back.
