Fun Days For Kids

Would you like some ideas of fun things to do with the kids this summer? Take a look for inspiration on #DaysOut, days in and lots of bucket list ideas too. This was compiled by a group of #Mums during a tweet chat. #SummerDaysForKids @fundaysforkids/fun-things-to-do-with-the-kids-during-the-summer-holidays-c6215295f4dd?source=linkShare-a97cfae4103f-1533069658" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@fundaysforkid…

@Natures_Voice Black Rock Sands looking towards Criccieth 🌊 #NorthWalesCoast

@thimbleandtwig @littleladybird3 @PGLTravel Our daughter’s trip was cancelled too but we are getting our money back. Not from PGL but from the insurance policy the school had.

@hayleyfromhome There’s a lot to get used to. Creative mode is great for designing things in worlds as there’s nothing to kill them. Mine swap between survival mode and creative depending on how they are feeling. They also like watching YouTube videos about it too and helps to gives them ideas!

@hayleyfromhome My 2 love it. Thought it was all a bit odd but is actually educational as my youngest was talking about obsidian being one of the hardest rocks to break which I think is true!

@KatyShez It was magical this morning wasn’t it?!

These sessions are always great at @tateliverpool #kidsinmuseums

@STHLibraries @kathboothroyd @sthelenscouncil @whatsonsthelens @sthelensarts @MandiB_ @Chicklitlibrary @LocalLifeMedia @puddle_play Ooh we’ll try to come along. Thanks 👍

@hayleyfromhome @emilyandmore I’ve had one off for 2 days with a vomiting bug and just returned. Hope we don’t come down with it!

My children are tag teaming their illness. 10yo at home for two days last week. 5yo off now. 😭

@messydaysplay Great idea 👍

In light of my recent posts about the need for mummy friends I’ve set up a group so that anyone who attends MessyDays can keep in touch with other mums, dads, nans, grandads, uncles, aunties, childminders... Open to… instagram.com/p/B28uswsndnl/…

@hayleyfromhome @tamingtwins Yum 😋 The mini egg cheesecake looks to die for too!

@hayleyfromhome It does get to a tipping point in our house where there’s that much stuff out they don’t play with any of it!

@STHLibraries @WADRoars @sthelensarts @kathboothroyd @ace_national @ace_thenorth @PetiteUllaloom @whatsonsthelens @sthelenscouncil @MandiB_ My children really enjoyed this performance. Thanks

@hayleyfromhome 😂 half is better than none tidied.

@MumsnetBloggers Yes I do and would love to find out more. Thanks

Do you have a child aged between 8-14 who has an interest in fashion / fashion design? Let us know if so. We've potentially got something exciting in the pipeline...

@ETusty @hayleyfromhome Good luck 🤞

@fundaysforkids @hayleyfromhome No, that's not reading. I need to get him reading. Audiobooks won't help his comprehension unless i can persuade him to read along too which would be unlikely. Audiobooks would drive me mad i think. He said he might read more if books were on the kindle so we'll see if that works

The #SummerReadingChallenge blasts off today! Will you be getting involved? We did for the first time last year and really enjoyed it 📚

@hayleyfromhome @bertsbooks

What’s your Harry Potter book title? Just write “Harry Potter and the ____ of ______ “ and let predictive text fill in the blanks. Mines “Harry Potter and the time of my life”

@hayleyfromhome @bertsbooks I got exactly the same! How weird 😆

@ETusty @hayleyfromhome Or it says audiobooks if you’d prefer it to be screen free?

@fundaysforkids @hayleyfromhome I did debate it a while ago. He loves books buying and borrowing, he just doesn't read them afterwards. I don't want him taking over my kindle. Could try on the kindle fire

@STHLibraries @BorrowBox @readingagency @kathboothroyd @whatsonsthelens @sthelensarts @sthelensstar @sthelenscouncil @Bolindaaudio @Chicklitlibrary @MandiB_ @joduf72 @ETusty this is the tweet I was talking about.

@ETusty @hayleyfromhome I’ve just seen that ebooks are included in the summer reading challenge. Maybe if he could read them on a tablet/iPad that might entice him? I’ll see if I can tag you in the tweet.

@fundaysforkids @hayleyfromhome Frustrating because he's aware that not reading out of school is holding him back but he just won't do it. Loves books, loves them being read to him, but won't read kids newspapers, magazines, books anything. His mind just says, reading is for school
