We’ve still got about another few weeks until the kids are back to school. If you’re running out of steam and need some ideas on what to do on the last leg of the school summer holidays, here are a few ideas:
- Family picnic or barbeque
Make the most of the gorgeous sunshine while you can. Many stores have great deals for picnics and barbeques (have a look at Iceland and Poundland, www.poundland.co.uk) and the kids will love it whether it’s at the local park or in your back garden.
- Indoor and outdoor camping
- Crazy Cookout
Make a range of delicious food and drinks from scratch and let the children get stuck in. Homemade pizza, lemonade, cookies and cake are always fun options. The possibilities are endless – he a look at www.familyfun.go.com/recipes/cooking-with-kids/ for more ideas.
