We go to park every day, and we're lucky to have 2 local charities that provide children's activities either cheaply or free during the holidays.

We have a huge forest nearby so we've been up there rambling and tree climbing. There's a big field across the road and they bike and play football and catch over there. It's next to a meadow so the kids play hide and seek in the grass as they're not much taller than it!

We've also got them booked in for the intensive swim courses at the nearest pool this summer and mini tennis and sports days all run by the local council in partnership with a local leisure centre.

We've just bought a swimming pool (glorified paddling pool with some inflatable donuts) for our two, in the hope that the weather holds out and they can entertain themselves! (DCs are 12 and 10, so can use it unsupervised).

I've also downloaded the 'moves' app on their phones, so it's a competition each day to see who has done the most steps over the day.

The park is always a great idea! We also like to play hide and seek with toys. So hide a toy and then we go look for it, a good way to get them moving!

We leave a tent out in the back garden all summer, and anyone who wants to can sleep in there. This always means plenty of outdoor play after supper/before breakfast. Before anyone huffs, they are very good about keeping the noise down! No trampolining after 9pm or before 8am, either.

Screentime has to be earned by 200skips/bounces, or something similar. They usually get carried away and do vastly more.

The trampoline has proven a great activity toy because they do more than just bounce on it. Latest craze is badmintoline - badminton with one dc on the trampoline and one dc on the lawn.

Send them on errands to local shops - this is a novelty for youngest, and also for middle as she gets to go further on her bike (oldest is now blasé and won't do it )

Garden sprinkler. Never used for watering plants, only ever brought out for water play.

Mega-bubbles in open parkland, especially on a breezy day.

We try to have a plan for at least part of each day, ideally outdoors- mine are like puppies who need exercise to stop them going crazy.

Getting a trailer bike for dc2 (3) means we can all go for bike rides together.

My lovely mil bought us national trust membership so can do regular trips round their gardens and the ones near us do seem to have regular trails and clue hunts to keep mine entertained.

We don't fill every day with activities I can't be doing with that but ds is happiest when outside so it's normally me being dragged out to watch him play basketball cricket or football, and as I can't run at all (spd) or walk far he is the ball boy, fetching every stray ball that goes off. Double the exercise for him! Tennis camps in summer holidays and cricket with daddy in evening. He doesn't seem to get bored of running non stop...

Dd is three so she just accompanies us and gets knackered.

Mine go to a local sports camp for a few days. They are very exhausted and dirty when they get home.

We also have a 'Boredom jar' - the kids help me to write different activities to do when they are bored. They take it in turns to pick. Activities such as 'Scoot around the block", "run up and downstairs 5 times", "go swimming", "play football in the park". They love it!

My eldest is a bus enthusiast, so we travel around on public transport several times a week, seeking out interesting places for him to take photos or spot vehicles he hasn't seen before. Neither boy is particularly sporty, but we rack up a lot of steps, this way, particularly if we get a train to somewhere completely new for him.

On days when we take a break from the bus (it's rather expensive!) we have a wander around the village.

We like camping but it's hard work. So we've started doing long day trips on a Saturday so we get whole days running around on a beach then get to sleep in our own beds!
We've also discovered loads of fab bike trails near us. Just take a bit of finding.
Finally they love just helping in the garden, sweeping, weeding etc

Haha so true "theknack" I like doing trips out and adventures but also love an afternoon pottering at home and letting the kids make their own entertainment.

Boredom is good - this stupid idea that you have to entertain kids and keep them constantly busy ....

Ensure that you are told when there is blood, but leave them to it

The girls got the 10 minute shake up packs from school and they are Finding Dory themed, so they are super keen to do it. We also have a dog so have daily walks. They are fairly active kids so it isn't hard to keep them active. Getting them to go to sleep however...

I look up different activities and festivals that are happening in London as there is always something going on over the summer. We have free sports activities for children over the summer in our local borough and that's a great way to keep them busy.

We've made lists- stuff to do at home (trampoline; making dens; fun with bubbles), stuff out and about for free (beach, park, woods), and treat trips (castles, zoos, etc). We sit down and plot out our week so we always have something to do a each day and tick off the list as we go.

A mixture of ways- got a few fun bits for the garden; we tend to go on quite "active" days out (eg adventure playgrounds) and also my son is booked to do sports camps on the few days I need to go in to work and now he has asked to do some extra sessions on his days off
We also have a very active and outdoorsy holiday planned

I am naturally very quite lazy so I like to balance this out by sitting and reading stories with them or a trip to the cinema

Making the most of the fabulous green areas around our home town. and we have fabulous park rangers that organise activities and nature walks.

Pokemon Go!

We have to do it with them. Otherwise they would just loll around. So it is all of us out to the park for pick nicks, or on trips to castles and libraries.

Trips to the park and the countryside for picnics. Bike rides. Swimming on rainy days or trampolining.

I just let them get on with it .... So far they have been playing Pokemon Go, tidying their rooms, baking cakes, watching tv, reading. They also came swimming with me

Geocaching! Went 'treasure hunting' today with DSs and found bits of our city we'd never been to before, walked miles and had a lovely day together

We go to the beach and splash about in the sea, go cycling or go to the park.
I like to go running and the DDs always want to come with me these days, so I have to take them out for a little run after I get home (they're 5 & 3)

We just get active together - on days when ds isn't at holiday club (where he'll do 7 different sports every day) we'll cycle, run or swim together everyday. On holiday we'll either be cycling or in/on the lake

Cycling daily. No excuses for any of us including myself. If it is not raining I ditch the car and the bikes are out, use them for everything, park, shopping, going into town.
Also they are enrolled in several sports activities, gymnastics, hockey and athletics. They do it in a group with coaches so it is a bit organise and the competitive site comes out as bit
