Cheap or free things to do with kids today?
Anyone have any ideas, we had a good day yesterday doing a triathlon, only spending £12.50 on the swimming part, but today I am scratching my head a bit.
One is 3 and the other is 7.......any help greatfully received. |

Museums? They sometimes have good interactive stuff these days, for no or little money. Another thing my two used to love was baking- go to the library for recipes, then shop for stuff, etc. Also libraries tend to do story times - don't know if the 7year old would thank you but the younger one might.

Some good ideas there - will see what they fancy, although the 3 year old wants to do the same as yesterday!!!

Get them to spend the morning making/decorating kites and spend the afternoon trying to get them to fly. They will be knackered running up/down the park trying to get them up.

Re: Cheap or free things to do with kids today?
I find nailing my step son to the floor works a treat, although the noise gets a little irritating!
I am about to take him for a long walk out on to Brean down, we were going to go climbing, but it rained a lot. Head into London and visit the climbing walls, kids love that. Here are some. http://www.mileendwall.org.uk/ http://www.castle-climbing.co.uk/ You will find these places scattered about the country and they are well worth a visit. If any of you are in the Bristol area try this place. http://www.bristolclimbingcentre.com/
