The summer holidays are well under way and if you’re still thinking of things to do with the kids, then we have you covered with our 10 top tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. LittleBird Family Pass<\/strong> – our friends at LittleBird have a wide range of offer on days out and activities for you and the kids. Sign up for their Family Pass<\/a> to unlock them.\n<\/p>\n

2. Mini Olympics<\/strong> – feeling inspired from the Olympics? Set up a mini competition in the garden. You can do simple sports day events. It’s a great way to get active with the kids.\n<\/p>\n

3. Picnic<\/strong> – a summertime favourite! Pack up some of your favourite foods and head to a local park, the countryside or even the garden. Earn 3% back with Sainsbury’s<\/a> if you need picnic supplies.\n<\/p>\n

4. Cinema<\/strong> – an activity for when it’s rainy now that cinemas are back open. There’s Jungle Cruise and Paw Patrol for two family-friendly options.\n<\/p>\n

5. Beach trip<\/strong> – the UK has some fabulous beaches so grab a bucket and spade and find out where your nearest beach is. Here are top 30<\/a> by The Beach Guide.\n\n<\/p>

6. Day in the woods<\/strong> – similarly to beaches there are some incredible woods and forests on our doorsteps. Pack a picnic and have a day exploring. Here is a guide<\/a> on some of the best.\n<\/p>\n

7. Baking<\/strong> – another rainy day activity. You can’t go wrong with baking. BBC Good Food<\/a> have some delicious recipes from brownies to cookies.\n<\/p>\n

8. KidZania<\/strong> – if you live in London or fancy a trip then we highly recommend a visit to KidZania<\/a>. A city ran by kids designed to empower and inspire. You can get 15% off tickets with KidStart, if you use the code KIDSTART15.\n<\/p>\n

9. Learn a new skill<\/strong> – is there a new skill you and the kids want to learn? Maybe something creative like pottery<\/a>, learning a language<\/a>, or starting a new sport like tennis<\/a>. There are plenty of apps, home kits and local services.\n<\/p>\n

10. Go on an adventure<\/strong> – open Google Maps showing a radius that you’re willing to travel and let your kids randomly pick a new place they’d like to explore. You can do a bit of research before you set off to see what there is to do there and have a family adventure.\n<\/p>\n

We hope you and your family have a fantastic summer holidays!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The summer holidays are well under way and if you’re still thinking of things to do with the kids, then we have you covered with our 10 top tips. 1.
