School summer holiday

**Bootrip2** · 31 Jul 19, 08:09 PM

Looking for a few cheap (or free!) ideas! Kids only been off a week, so far DD has had a gym session, cinema to se Toy Story4, a day shopping and today an edible slime workshop, (DD loved that!). Tomorrow is rockpooling at local beach, thats me out of ideas! Only 5 weeks to go!
We are planning to go camping at some point, but the cost of that has shot up since i last went!

Share your activities!

What about geocaching? There�s an app you can download that gives you geocaches in your area.

Do you live anywhere near an "Oxygen" trampoline park? The one near us is normally �13 for 1 hour. But they are doing a summer pass for �35, for up to 3 hours per day.

We will probably have taken them 7 or 8 times to that by the end of the holidays. Decent value with that much use out of it, and the other plus being 2-3 hours of trampolining does seem to actually knacker them out a bit.

But a lot of kids places like this seem to have some kind of summer offer on. See if there is one that your kids love that has a decent value offer on.

We find local parks, woods, streams & waterfalls, beaches etc
We take a picnic and loads of treats and explore. Free and fantastic!
We use rainy days for boring things like uniform shopping and free museums (kids love them)
