Half term days out

Our grandsons are staying for a few days during half term, so we’re going to Knole Park, a National Trust property, with deer, a vast area of parkland and woodland, with lots of climbing for them and to generally letting off steam. Then we’ll go to Zizzi for pizza, unless we take a picnic. 😊

Hobby craft are offering a 30 minute session modelling Easter animals for £5.
We have done a couple of their workshops and have been pleased with them. All materials are included and the clearing up is done for you!

We combine it with a drink in our local 'posh' hotel, which is actually cheaper than most of the coffee shops, and a walk to the park playground if the weather is good.

I have always found the local libraries hold some very good events in the school breaks. No walking involved and lots for smaller children to do. Does your local council put on half-term and school holiday events? Many do and again there is a varied programme involving sport, dance, craft, lego and animal based events. Migration, Peppa Pig's Cinema Party and Hey Duggee are on at my local cinema so have a look to see if something suitable for little ones is on near you.

Had to laugh at that - not when your GS is hyperactive you don't!

I find myself like a jack in the box at soft play. Trips to the loo, come and watch me do this, getting drinks, I'm stuck, this boy/girl is being horrible, finding snacks. It's all go.
