Kids Days Out Tips
10 Fun Ideas for Kids Days Out by Sally Coulthard
- Bring history alive with castles, dungeons, archaeological digs and historical re-enactments.
- Make a splash - try aquaparks, sealife centres, barges, maritime museums, and tall ships.
- Get into nature - look out for farms, safari parks, agricultural shows, nature trails and aquariums.
- Get them thinking - join in with a treasure trail, scavenger hunt or get lost in a maze.
- High speed antics - whizz off on quad-bikes, pony-treks or trail-biking.
- Tempt them with treats at food fairs, cooking classes, fudge kitchens and farm shops.
- Here comes the science. Explosions, experiments and mad professors. Look for hands-on science museum near you.
- Grit and grime. Mills, railway museums, mining museums, kids are fascinated by the grime and noise of our industrial heritage.
- Trains, planes and car museums - let kids can enjoy the thrill of transport.
- For something completely different, visit a chocolate factory, watch the Red Arrows or go to the races....anything goes!
