Ideas for “vouchers” for family days out

Inspired by Martin Lewis (!) dd11 has asked for a jar filled with promises of things to do as a family. The idea is she picks one a month and we do it sometime during that month. Any ideas for anything realistic (but possibly some out of the ordinary too)? I did ask if she’d like some trips out with friends/ experiences just for her, as it seemed more of a family present, but she said “maybe next year,” and insists this is what she wants!

Cinema
Theatre
Bowling
Go-karting
Climbing wall
Indoor skydiving
Afternoon tea

Craft course (floristry/sugar craft)

Local castle tour with picnic or tea shop visit.

Museum visit - Even better if it is specific to one of her hobbies or interests.

Trip to the seaside with fish and chips afterwards.

Board game night.

How easy is it to get theatre tickets for that month? She’d love that idea.
Skydiving is good too
Cinema definitely
Bowling probably too
And afternoon tea/ meal out
Some of the others we’d definitely do anyway, so more ideas needed!

This is such a great idea! Thinking of suggesting this to DP so that we actually do things together once in a while...

Maybe look at getting National Trust/English Heritage membership; and look at local sites to you - they often have great events on throughout the year that you could plan in?
