We have done a few nice things over the summer holidays. I think the kids have had a good balance of fun things and chill out days .

but , I’m now skint . Beyond skint . I have 5 full days until payday.

what free things are people doing this week? So inspiration would be great!

just to say mine are dd16 and DS 13 , so they would happily stare at a screen alllllll day, but I’d really rather we didn’t just stare at a screen and wish the week would pass !

we do have a car , but petrol is a concern. However, three out of four of us have a free anywhere bus pass

Let them use their devices to plan a day out for everyone on minimal budget.

Geocaching. They can stare at their screens while out looking for treasure!

Have their friends over or send them to their friends house.

Go for a walk.

Do you have any free museums/galleries/exhibits locally?

Board games/puzzles

Get them to clear out their bedrooms/the house more generally and take stuff to the charity shop or plan a boot sale.
