Activities in the summer holidays

[kittenscat]

Are there any great activities in the outdoors for children this summer in York/Yorkshire? We went to the Yorkshire arboretum last year and it was great for shelter building and pond dipping.

I took my nieces to Eden Camp on the Coastliner. Not so much an "activity" and but definitely outside and there is a good adventure playground there. Would recommend the museum content for kids aged 8 and onwards, though our 7 year old enjoyed it, even if she couldn't fully understand the historic content of the exhibitions.

I highly recommend the woodland adventure company in Stamford Bridge. He does some workshops over the holidays I think

Thanks for that we are going back to the Yorkshire Arboretum on Sunday the 3rd September as they have a Teddy Bears' Picnic and you can decorate teddy biscuits. However we did go to Eden camp and loved it thanks for the suggestion.
