Mid-term break offers a wonderful opportunity for families to enjoy some quality bonding time together - now, all you have to do is plan.
With many events on the horizon, there is plenty to keep the little ones occupied, but there is one setback – a little family fun can sometimes cost of lot of money!
We know that we don’t need to spend money in order to enjoy some quality time with our children, which is why have compiled a list of purse-friendly things to do this Easter. Get inspired, and have some fun!
Arrange a play date
Do a craft project
Enjoy the STEM weekend events at Arnotts
School’s out, which means our children are free to do (almost) whatever they wish! While a little extra screen time is probably on the cards, this is the perfect opportunity for them to hang out with their friends. Invite a neighbour, friend or group of friends over for a play date, and encourage them to get outside and play in the fresh air. It won’t be long before they are putting their heads together and coming up with some fun games of their own. Don’t be afraid to include siblings in some of the games, too – there’s room for everyone!
This is the perfect activity for a rainy day. Go to your craft cupboard/drawer, pick out some bits and bobs, and get the creative juices flowing! Whether it’s potato-print painting or papier-mâché, select a project that everyone – including Mum and Dad – can get stuck into together. When you’re marvelling at the finished product, you’ll be only too proud to boast that you created it as a family.
Arnotts is embracing education with a new series of fun filled but educational children’s themed weekends. The STEM weekends which are a celebration of all things science, technology, engineering and maths related will take place over three consecutive Saturdays on the 24th, 31st March and 7th April from 11:00am - 4:30pm and aims to engage and inform children to the ways of the world around them all in an interactive and entertaining setting. Hosted by Dr Jennifer Cleary and with workshops from Interactive workshops from “Djeco”, “Arckit” and “Tech will save us” as well as face painting, arts and crafts and much more, there's something to suit children of all ages. Not to be missed.
