thanks gracelo - what is there that kids aged 6 - 8 might find fun?

I have a look through the booklet after work. II'll get back to you in the evening.

MTPW, I had alook through the booklet and there isn't really that much for kids.

Inverness has a Beltane Festival going on from the 5th to the 13th of May with music, storytelling, pipe bands...
And Saturday, 24th of May there is a "a procession of glowing paper lanterns and fantastical creatures in an echanting woodland" at Brahan Estate, near Dingwall.

thank you anyway. i'm sure they'll have fun with all the things already on the list.

it looks like a lovely area. i'm really looking forward to it.
