Experience gifts - ideas and feedback?

In an effort to stem the tide of 'stuff' coming into the house I am looking at experience gifts for the kids this year. I am sure I am not the only one - can we have a thread to share ideas?

Thoughts I have had so far are:

Young drivers for a 14-16 yr old - eg from here www.youngdriver.eu/

It looks quite fun as a one off but is it worth doing a course for a 14/15 year old or is it too soon?

Zoo experiences - meet the animals/keep experience - has anyone done one of these eg www.zsl.org/experiences/zoo-explorers-at-zsl-whipsnade-zoo-5-7-year-olds?

Highly recommend these guys. We did the Break the Barrier experience for my 15 year old daughter recently and she loved it.

We are giving tickets to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child as a gift.

Dm has been happy with tickets to a National Theatre Live performance at her local cinema in the past.

Isn't this your third thread on this!

Yes - I only wanted 1 thread but MN was having a glitch when I posted. Have reported to see what they can do about it….

Escape room as a family is something my kids love doing. Also west end theatre tickets
go karting
theme park
stay at port lympne with the golf buggy (pushing the boat out financially with that one)
football stadium tour
football tickets

also magazine subscriptions/craft box subscriptions/adopt an animal (pangolin for my littlest, one of his favourite gifts) have all gone down well here
